Oh, sorry about that. Can you tell me what happened, and what kind of experience youโ€™ve had with beta readers?

I get that! Iโ€™m not writing at the moment; Iโ€™m just offering editing and beta reading. Do you need a beta reader for your story?

Thatโ€™s exciting, congrats on getting your story into the anthology! How did you come up with the idea for Gangsta Godmother?

Congrats on finishing that draft! Nothing beats the feeling of getting words down again. Howโ€™s the edit of chapter 1 looking so far?

Thatโ€™s awesome progress! Noir horror fantasy detective sounds like such a cool mix. Howโ€™s the final chapter shaping up so far?

Vivid and intense, this scene crackles with raw transformation and chilling dialogue. The horror is alive on the page, and the contrast between the knightโ€™s desperation and the vampireโ€™s calm makes it unforgettable. He do you usually find your story ideas? lol.

Nice progress! Almost hitting 50k is such a great milestone. Do you have something special planned for when you reach it?

On a background of air bubbles against blue water. 

The snippet reads:
Avanisโ€™ throat seized, and oh gods, she could taste the putrid blackness. It coated her tongue, swelled in her throat, and filled her lungs. She fell to the deck, scrabbling at her neck, retching and shaking her head, trying to expel the holy ink.

She was drowning all over again.

Great One, please! I wasnโ€™t thinkingโ€” I shouldnโ€™t have saidโ€” Please!

At the bottom of the screen there is an image of two crossed swords

Iโ€™m unable to send you an email. Could you please write it out for me that way? Itโ€™ll be easier.

31.08.2025 12:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah! We can talk through email if thatโ€™s okay with you.

Alright! Can you give me a summary of your story?

Haha thatโ€™s a great reaction. If youโ€™d like another beta reader to dive into it, Iโ€™d love to help.

Congrats on finally getting through that rewrite, thatโ€™s real dedication. If youโ€™d like a beta reader to check it out as you move forward, Iโ€™d love to help.

Thatโ€™s great progress and Iโ€™m glad Sam is doing better. If youโ€™d like a beta reader for your work, Iโ€™d love to help.

29.08.2025 08:36 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Thatโ€™s so true. The key is to take the feedback that helps your story and leave the rest. Not every opinion will fit, and thatโ€™s okay. If you need a beta reader, Iโ€™d be happy to help.

The tension here is great, I like how the pause builds suspense. If youโ€™d like a beta reader to go through more of this, Iโ€™d love to help.

That sounds exciting, especially with a big fight scene coming up. If youโ€™d like a beta reader to check it out, Iโ€™d love to help.

A finished chapter is always progress. If youโ€™d like a beta reader to give it a look, Iโ€™d love to help.

Early mornings can be tough, but it sounds like youโ€™re making the most of it. If youโ€™d like a beta reader while working on your titles, Iโ€™d love to help.
