Beta lounge

Everyone happily creating after last week's claiming?

This post is a place to ask for OR offer beta services. Need some help thinking through art or story ideas? Leave a comment. Want to help someone else through the creative process--and get a sneak peek at a gift, too? Leave a comment. (All beta help welcome--you don't need to be a participant.)

Remember, beta-read gifts are due in four weeks, on Saturday, November 22. Submission instructions and template will go up shortly. Have fun, everyone!

I will need a beta once I have a draft complete (probably mid-November) - I particularly need someone to evaluate narrative flow, consistency, and overall construction. Brit picking is always nice, but not essential.

I am also available as beta in trade or if anyone else needs a beta. I am a native English speaker with experience as an ESL teacher and high school teacher, so I can help with grammar, construction, content, and editing, and I am happy to discuss intangible story elements as well. And while I probably watch more British television than is healthy, I am actually an American and unable to comment on British-particular elements of language.

I can beta for you in return, if you like!
