Wow, this sounds EPIC!!! I can’t really take on anymore critiquing projects right now (I’m swamped with school), but if you ever do beta readers in the future I’d LOOVE to join in then!!!!!!

@kayleigh-idea Wow, your summary has me hooked. Tragically, I’m rather swamped at the moment, but please let me know once the time comes for beta-ing! Hopefully I’ll have the space in my life by then. Good luck with editing!!!
(Also, I don’t believe we’ve met. Hi, I’m Elizabeth. :P)

I would love to read it! it sounds so fascinating! I have never been any sort of Alpha or Beta reader (I’m not even sure what they are exactly besides they give you outside feedback) but I don’t know how my schedule is going to look for those five chapters a week.

Thank you!! You’ve no idea how much it helps to hear you say those things <333 And I guess I’ve never really thought about it that way. I guess I thought that, if I was doubting my writing, then it was bad. But what you said makes sense! I super appreciate the kind words. Thank you! They mean so much 🙂

Hello and welcome to Kingdom Pen!
That’s super awesome that you’ve finished two novels! Your WIPs sound interesting, (I like retellings of classic tales). Which one is the most fun to retell?
