If you are like the majority of authors we talk to, then you have had to reformat, resend, and otherwise provide extensive tech support to help readers open your book. You have probably had to do this at least once, and maybe a bunch of times, and it drives you crazy. It is especially maddening because we all know that it’s no one’s fault. It is simply a reality of the complicated digital world we live in.

Oh that first beta woe - deciding who to trust with your manuscript. This is something authors ask us about all the time. We get a lot of questions about whether BetaBooks is safe, and we're very happy to tell them yes.

To help everyone get the most out of BetaBooks, we've written a four-part series introducing the big Beta Woes and explaining how BetaBooks solves them.

If you arrived at BetaBooks looking for beta readers you are not alone. We are always glad to explain this in individual email conversations with people who ask, but since it comes up relatively often Paul and I thought it would be helpful to write-up a blog post explaining what BetaBooks is, what it isn’t, and why it isn’t a matchmaking service.

Why is the term Beta Reader better than any other term.
