The 2021 Beta-Reading Post

[brightknightie]

Time flies! We have 20 days to our due date! Stories — 500 words minimum, challenge-style — come due on May 15. They start releasing on May 17. Time to beta?

"Beta-reading" is reading a draft and sharing encouragement, questions, proofreading... whatever the author needs to make the story better! Can you help?

Please reply to this post! Give your reply a subject, like "Will Beta" or "Need Beta." Then, use this post to chat! Maybe come back from time to time to see who else may need or offer help...?

(First out of the gate, waltd recently posted elsewhere that he's already seeking a beta-reader. See his post.)

Need beta

[pj1228]

I think I may need a beta reader. Mostly for checking grammar, but thoughts on the plot are also welcome. The story has 6500 words and mature subject matter (I think), not explicit though. It would be helpful if the beta reader has inclinations towards UF.
