You get to help choose a cover.


This July, I am releasing my novel, UnCivil War: A Modern Day race War in the United States. Not a single zombie was killed in the creation of this novel. Now, the temptation is to rush this out and reach the deadline I set for myself; however, I have learned that my beta readers are simply too valuable to skip past on such an important project. So, here I am, looking for a few of you to give this book  a read-through. Let me know what you think, point out any mistakes I missed during the edit phase, and then, have a review ready to post on release day.


I hope to have the ARC ready by the first of July-ish. Then, I can give you two weeks to give it the going over. So, I am hoping a few of you would be interested. My cut off is 20. And I will really need your reviews for this one to push it into the social awareness. However, if you are one of the Beta readers and you DO NOT LIKE the book...that is okay too. This is entertainment, you can't please everybody, and so it is okay to write a less-than-stellar review.


In addition, I would also love to see which of these covers you prefer. If you saw this on the shelf, which one would you be apt to give a look?

Have a great HUMP DAY!

  1. I like the one in the middle because of the wording at the top, it just works better. I don't know if I want to be a beta reader, I have never been one before I do want your next book asap because I tend to IKE all of your books. (was that a test?) I'm a bit concerned about a zombie book where zombies are not harmed, but if they are harmed in the book but not in the making of the book that would probably be ok. Thanks to texting & genetics my punctuation & spelling are horrific, I can usually spot it if its wrong though.

    I have been told I am too honest, brutally honest, etc.

    Anyway there you go... I'm not sure if I am trying to get one of the positions or not. I am excited about a new book, is it a series or a stand alone?

    1. See, you already caught one typo. (I have fixed it now.) And this book, UnCivil War, is a stand alone. You will be emailed a PDF copy to scour and give your input on soon. Details to follow.

      And thank you.

  2. Just my opinion but I would put the subtitle after the title on the cover.
    And I'm pretty sure I already called dibs on beta reading this one.
