I’m not sure I got everyone’s chapters last week. So If I didn’t get yours please let me know. I will get all caught up on everyone’s chapters this week. :slight_smile: I will be heading home from my parent’s house on Wednesday so I’ll be bored again haha.

I’m on time for once. I just shared mine and edited what was shared with me so far. :grin:

If anyone wants heavier edits or more of a focus on what you think your weak points are, please say something. I’ve just been sticking to the basic stuff so far. Just to reiterate my own preference, I’m mostly looking for grammar checks and such.

Also, I had a feeling that wall of text at the end of my first chapter was going to be controversial. :joy: I appreciate everyone’s input so far.

@all I’m trying to get this done tonight since the rest of this weekend will be hectic for us, but I’m not seeing any of the chapters. Has everyone shared their chapters for this week?

The only one in my email is One Night Standards - chapter 4. So I do have that one.

Saturday and Sunday is usually the worst for me. But this week was very weird compared to most and the next few will be too haha. :joy:

I would LOVE to be a part of this group. Do you have a discord or anything? I love helping to edit plots and characters. Not very good at grammar. And I do critiques (I’ll be going to college to be a book editor).

I don’t have a discord :frowning: but we’re doing the edits through Gmail:D would that still work? :slight_smile:

I’ve been busy the past few days but I was missing a few chapters last time I checked, too. Maybe you guys just didn’t add them by then? I don’t get notifications when anything is shared. I’ll check again soon.

I might switch my current story to a new flash fiction (500~ words) each week if no one has any objections. :thinking:

We’re using Google Docs, which I think you can use with any google account. It makes it easy to comment specific words or sections and suggest edits without them becoming permanent straight away.

I would be happy to edit anything you want to share.

I’m so sorry guys for the delay in my edits, feedback, and such. I will do double-time this week, and only send a chapter of mine if you would like me to as it’s not fair that I haven’t finished yours.

My husband came home, so it’s been great being back with him.
