ARC Program
We've developed an ARC program to provide our authors an extra support layer through an Advances Reader's Copy program. Staying true to the roots of an ARC program, participants will be given free digital copies of our forthcoming and previously published books in exchange for honest feedback and reviews. Our hope is to create an additional caveat of continued support for our authors while satiating our audiences' hunger for fresh reading materials. If you are interested in joining our exclusive ARC program, read the information on this page and fill out our ARC program application at the bottom of this page or find us on Submittable to apply there.
In addition to the traditional aspects of ARC groups, we have also incorporated beta/alpha reading into our program. Additionally, those who have a full-length published book are welcome to participate in the book blurb portion of our program. These participants will have the opportunity to provide ARC book blurbs that will appear on our author's covers.
Incentives for being a part of our ARC Program:
- You receive free digital copies of books in exchange for reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, bookstagram page/website, and publisher websites
- You can participate in promotions and giveaway competitions pertaining to the ARC program that we have throughout the year
- You can earn free submissions to Quillkeepers Press anthologies for every three books you read and review
- Great way to network with authors and publishers
