Are you looking for someone to give honest, constructive feedback on your WIP novel? My offer is a bit different from most. Rather than you read my work first and then I respond in kind, I’m flipping the script! I read and crit your work first!
My experience includes:
30+ years of writing experience
15 Self-Published novels
13 Years teaching Multiple Subject (including English Language Arts)
While my skills aren’t perfect (I tend not to catch my own errors), I am very good about spotting areas for improvement in the things I read for others. I have been doing Beta work almost as long as I’ve been writing and my skills in each has improved in tandem.
My strengths include:
Writing dialogue dynamically
Writing flow
Writing mechanics
Does it sound like a good deal to you? If so things will work like this:
If interested reply below with the story title, genre, and anything you want me to focus on as I beta.
DM me the link to your story.
I will vet the story to be sure it’s something I’m comfortable doing.
I will contact you either here or via DM if I cannot work your beta, or I’ll simply work through the first chapter beta if I accept.
When I finish the first chapter I will ask that you review one chapter of my works either on Wattpad or on Wacky Writers
Once that first trade is complete I will ask that you reapply if you wish me to continue and we’ll repeat the cycle.
If you and @FranklinBarnes would both select one of my stories to review/critique I would be grateful. Just let me know if you would like another chapter Beta’d.
Alright, I’ll add you to my queue. The premise sounds intriguing ( a bit Magnus Chase and the like). I’ll let you know when I get the first chapter done!
