Acr readers wanted - Dark fantasy

I’m looking for a small number of ARC readers for my upcoming dark fantasy novel.

It’s a slowburn, character-driven story set in a guarded carnival that promises safety — and quietly decides what that safety costs. The focus is on atmosphere, power dynamics, and morally complicated characters rather than action-heavy plot.

Action absolutely does exist, but the main drive is on characters and their dynamics.

You might enjoy this if you like: Gothic or atmospheric fantasy Humor, without undercutting tension Character driven stories with no cliches Unsettling women / female antagonists Quiet dread over spectacle Found family with sharp edges

If you're interested, I can first send few chapters of my story, so you get the feel and style of it.

What I’m asking: Read an advance copy (digital)

Consider leaving an honest review on Goodreads and/or Amazon after release. (no obligation to review if it’s not your thing)

Timeline: ARCs available: February 1st 2026 Release date: April 15th 2026

If you’re interested, please: Send me a comment or DM. Please like and reblog if possible.

Thank you for reading — and thank you for supporting indie authors. 🖤

- this is slightly less awesome

- this is shit

- I’m shit

-oh god oh fuck what the hell am I doing

-wait this might not be that bad actually

- How the fuck is this working

-This is awesome

Excerpt from Carnival

Oscar hopped off the stage. “So… what did you come here to tell me?”

“Okay, well…” Jasper glanced nervously around the tent. “So… I don’t want you to make a big deal out of this, but...”

Oscar’s brows dropped in frustrated impatience. He waved his hand in a tight circle, wordlessly urging Jasper to get on with it.

“I might need help with the supplies tomorrow.”

Oscar shook his head and turned away. That was the big request? The most tedious task he did every single week.

Jasper cleared his throat. “…In town.”

Oscar spun back around, his expression overtaken by equal parts shock and delight. Before he could get a single word out, Jasper tilted his head slightly.

“Don’t make a big deal out of this.”

Oscar’s eyes went round as the moon. He shook his head quickly, fighting to keep a straight face.

“No. Of course not. I mean...” He shrugged. “What would there even be to make a big deal out of?”

“Tomorrow. After work,” Jasper emphasized, already turning away. As he headed toward the exit, he heard a light shuffle behind him. “And stop doing that happy dance. It makes me uncomfortable.”

The shuffling stopped.

the more you write, the more you start to think it's getting worse

Hyperfixation

Hyperfixation going on strong for the third month now. Years of slow progress, but when things connect, it's impossible to stop!!! But it's fun... Mixed with doubt and panic. Sometime I need to reset my brain. The worry slowly fades

[carnival-novel]

Writer anxiety!

I love how confident you can be about your work one day and start to rethink the whole process the next with deep anxiety!

But I guess everyone should be fine with writing complete crap just to get moving and worry about fixing things when the time comes. Writing is a wonderful mix of Pride and panic

my fave writing reminder

honestly, this phrase has been on my mind more times than i can count. i've kidnapped it, taken it as a hostage with no ransom money because i need it to live permanently in my head.
