Submission site for Dear Author

Submit your book for review consideration

In order to effectively and efficiently handle our review requests, we are asking you to fill out this form. In the past, review requests were emailed to one person (jane) who would make the call whether it was good enough to be passed on to the larger DA reviewing crew.

This is an inefficient way to handle review requests. The DA review crew has disparate tastes. Allowing a form to be filled out that all reviewers could see and respond to made the most sense.

Submission of book and or selecting a reviewer is no guarantee of a review or one done by that person.

Where can I buy your book?*
Enter the retailers where your book is available. Separate the stores by comma. I.e., Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords. As of 2013, we are not reviewing books that are sold exclusively at one store. It must be available in more than one format. In other words, it cannot be part of the Kindle Direct Select program unless there is a print version that can be easily obtained.
Publisher of your book*
Enter the publisher of your book.
Is your book available on NetGalley or Edelweiss?*
Do you have a digital copy of your book for review?*
Digital Arc
You may upload a PDF, ePub, Mobi, Doc, or Docx file.
Do you have a reviewer preference?
Submission of book and or selecting a reviewer is no guarantee of a review or one done by that person. This is merely an optional field to fill out, particularly if you know the reviewer's taste or have been reviewed by the reviewer before.
