Support LDS authors and be first to read their work

Nauvoo Supply Co. champions LDS voices through our publishing imprint, 40 North Press, and we're host to a sci-fi/fantasy magazine, Infinite Valley. Our authors need readers of all ages to provide crucial feedback to refine books and stories before publication.

We publish work that gives voice to the creative output of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You don't need to be LDS to participate—just passionate about helping creators succeed.

What we’re looking for 

  • People who understand how stories can uplift person’s spirit or change an outlook
  • Constructive critics who can articulate helpful, actionable feedback
  • Readers across all age ranges and experience levels

What you'll do

  • Provide honest feedback on clarity, character development, plot, pacing, and messaging
  • Complete reads within given deadlines
  • Keep all unpublished content confidential

What you'll get

  • Early access to books and stories before publication
  • Material matched to your interests
  • A copy of the finished work
  • The gratitude of authors you've helped
