Publishing update

Hello, dear readers! I am finally getting close to publishing A Season Lost! I hope to have it out in November, but with the length of this one, it takes quite awhile to get through a single read, so it will depend on when the typo pace slows or stops in the final proofing process.

But that's how you can help. Similar to what I did with A Change of Legacies, I'd love to have a "typo squad" give the almost-publishable draft a read and let me know if you spot anything. If you participate, I'll give you a published copy in your choice of formats.

Email me at sophieturner1805 [at] gmail [dot] com before Friday, Nov. 2 if you're interested. Also let me know whether you want .mobi or another ebook format, or a PDF.

And watch this space, as we're getting ever-closer to publication for A Season Lost!
