@seekjustice Hey, no problem. I do have like 5 other people reading it. XD But yeah, the general stuff is just as important as the normal stuff, so if you are willing to do that, it would be amazing!

I’m super sorry that I never got around to critiquing your novel at all, it was bad form of me 🙁 I hope you got some helpful responses, and I’m sorry again that I didn’t end up having as much time as I thought I was going to.
If you ever need beta readers in the future though, certainly let me know! (Sorry) (I feel the obsessive need to say sorry a lot) (you are a talented writer though, and definitely keep writing!) (just a quick question: have you taken Daeus’ show don’t tell course? One small thing I did pick up in your writing is that you do overuse telling) (if you haven’t, definitely consider it!) Okay, I need to stop now 😀

@seekjustice I can see there’s only one thing to be done here.
*melts chair*
*grins* Thanks for giving me the excuse. I haven’t melted one of those in a while.
Aaaanyway, that is all right. I totally understand when life hits you hard–happened to me recently. If you want, you could probably be a charlie/delta reader for the later drafts of this book. It won’t be as intense beta-reading, so it might be lighter. But hey, that’s the future.
*smeagol voice* And we can’t decide the future now can we precious?

OOH! BETA-READING! *bounces up and down* *waves*
Could I? *jumps up and down excitedly* Your synopsis/summary sounds awesome!
May I? But wait…how are you doing it? Is it on Google (the only form of beta-reading-stuff that I am familiar with) or do we do something else?

As always, I’m late to all the good forums and miss everything! 😩😫 Is there still a reader slot open? 🙏🙏🙏 *jumps on top of computer desk and waves to the computer monitor* I hope that there is … your story sounds awesome!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 (😅😂)
Oh, @dragon-snapper

ENFJ-T ... I think (haven't taken the quiz in awhile)@warrenluther04 Lol. *pats shoulder* There there. You’re only ah… two months late.
LOL Yes you can read it. BUT, you’ll probably have to wait a bit until I’m done with this round of edits. Then, I’ll ask for another round of beta-readers (charlie-readers). But I will need that kind of people, so I’ll be sure to tag you if you’re available then. Does that work?
I do it over Word. However, I’m considering changing it to Google so you don’t have to worry about that.

@dragon-snapper Alpha? Beta? Charlie?! How many types of proofreading are there?!
You can pronounce it however you want.
@dekreel Alpha – 1st readers of unedited work.
Beta – 2nd readers of 1st edits
Charlie – 3rd readers of 2nd edits.
Delta – 4th readers of 3rd edits.
Echo – 5th readers of 4th edits.
And so forth. I don’t know if this actually exists.☀ ☀ ☀ ENFP ☀ ☀ ☀
@dragon-snapper Ahhh, interesting! 🙂
Why aren’t they called Gamma and Epsilon? (Honestly Charlie and Echo are awesome names, it’s just…)
You can pronounce it however you want.
@dekreel Well, I was going by the military version. Gamma an Epsilon… I think those are Greek? Or some other version.
I don’t know. That’s just what I’m calling them.

@dragon-snapper Ohhhh, I see
Yup. Gamma and epsilon are Greek.
You can pronounce it however you want.
@dragon-snapper Ohh……
Thanks! Okay, I will be a Charlie-reader! *strides forth determinedly* I’ll just try to be on KP more so I actually get all of my notifications… 😅
I could probably do Word. I have a Mac, but I have Word on here so I could be able to do it. I’ll do whatever is sent to me! 😀 😀
But yeah, Google would probably be easier. Thanks for putting me on a list for potential charlie-readers! 🙂
