Beta readers and ARC readers are an integral part of publishing, and in this issue of Indie Author Magazine, we're making it even easier to collaborate with them. Find document sharing platforms to get your draft into their hands, explore which readers-or editors-your novel needs, and see how the right team of advance readers can launch your book to new heights before you've even hit Publish.

You'll also read a Q&A with Joanna Penn, author, public speaker, entrepreneur, and the host of The Creative Penn-a writing and marketing podcast that has seen more than 8.4 million downloads since its launch in 2009. Read about her wonderfully creative career and some of the indie publishing lessons she's learned along the way.
