@LuoBinguini I'd be happy to beta read, what fandoms or types of fics are you most hoping to get invested in this summer?

@HyvnInWriters I'd be interested in beta reading the HyunIN fic, could you tell me a bit about the fic and what kind of feedback the author is looking for?

✨HYUNIN ENTHUSIASTS: ❗️ISO: BETA READER❗️ ℹ️ someone reached out to us asking for help to find a beta reader for their HyunIN Fic! ℹ️ If you’re interested in helping please send us a DM so that we can connect you to the author.

@Cryptids_ghting I volunteer as tribute! Drop the Sparknotes version, and I’ll give you a full whump assessment. How much suffering are we talking about on a scale of 1 to 10? Would you mind sharing more details in DM?

I need a beta reader but not actually a beta reader just someone I can tell the Sparknotes plot to and they tell me if it’s whump or needs extra warnings. Is this hashtag relatable

@jamiekwil @autumn_inkblood Alright

It's not a genre really - it's a meta-analysis of storytelling structure proposing that there is a distinct female-coded structure just as the Hero's Journey is a male-coded structure. The book is more accessible than my description, LOL! It's still being written, and follow me and I'll follow back and DM you when it's done.

It's strange to me how few discussions there are over writing craft on X. Most of the time it's people complaining about the "show, don't tell" rule. Where are my fellow writers who want to nerd out over plot structure and pacing?

@jamiekwil @autumn_inkblood I’d love to help keep you on the straight and narrow. What’s the genre, and how can I get the manuscript for beta reading?

@autumn_inkblood LOL oh, I will definitely need beta readers. I'm a political animal but this book CANNOT be political; if you can keep me honest, I will owe you hugely.

@A_J_Luther @TiffeDraft The mix of Nordic and Slavic lore is such a rich foundation.

@TiffeQuill @TiffeDraft The most I've used so far is the Nordic & Slavic mythology behind Mare's. I've taken the ideas behind them, and mixed that with their modern concepts, and changed its conventions to fit my story's environment, and world. That's as specific as I can get... 👀

I have made GREAT progress with the planing of my #WIP I was struggling to connect the characters to the location & I've finally cracked the code!! A Christmas Carol meets Scooby-Doo before The Dark Pictures Anthology with a Last Voyage of the Demeter twist... 👀 #writing #WIP

@fowler_g31952 I'd be interested in beta reading, what genre are you writing, and what kind of feedback are you hoping a beta reader will give?

Where can I find trusted beta readers?

@jeansjosten I'd be interested in beta reading, what are you working on, and what kind of feedback would be most helpful for you right now?

i highkey need a beta reader

@Ughhhhh0142803 Alright, can you DM me on how to get the manuscript?

@TiffeQuill Aside from characterization, I have a tendency to word things in a confusing way.

Something I always wonder is how do people find beta readers for their fics?

@author71 28k words and heading into Chapter 14 is great progress. Hope the drive gives you plenty of good ideas and plenty of Hey Siri, make a note moments too.

Word count 28,610; Chapter 14 next. Time to pause and reflect what's next. I have a five hour drive ahead of me this afternoon. Plenty of time to think about it. I'll be yelling at my phone, "Hey, Siri, make a note." #WritingCommunity #Amwriting #AuthorsofTwitter

@DouglasCibala Alright, what stage are you currently on? Would you mind sharing more details about it in DM?

@TiffeQuill Historical Fiction. Genre blending and everything in between. I primarily write short stories.

I am writing stories that thrill, enchant, transport you into a different plain of existence. The kind of stories that make you wonder and see things in a different light. I am writing the kind of stories that I want to read about.. #WritingCommunity

@ConradsChicken @_yailetmf Such a great reminder that progress is better than perfection. If you need an editor or beta reader to polish your latest menu items, I’m here to help you get them ready for the world.

@_yailetmf Write a first draft, just to put your ideas on paper. Once everything is written, take a step back and come back to perfect it. Nobody's gonna look at your 1st or 2nd draft, who cares? Also: end product doesn't have to be (and can't be) perfect. Nobody will expect perfection!

@realMattKParker @jakwyre That sounds like a gripping blend of Folk Horror and Supernatural Thriller. Are you drawing inspiration from any specific legends or myths for the curses?

@jakwyre thanks! in a sense I was editing and writing at the same time; the previous draft of this manuscript was 60K words; so I edited and added to it (another 37k words). Writing for me is a manic all or nothing process. It truly consumes me. I'm glad to be done (for now 🥴)

Matt, @realMattKParker congratulations on writing your manuscript. There is something about the physicality of actually sitting there and doing it. So, kudos to your effort(s), man. A couple of questions: Did you edit as you go? Are you good at editing? Is it fiction or what? Ta.

@A_J_Luther @TiffeDraft That sounds like a gripping blend of Folk Horror and Supernatural Thriller. Are you drawing inspiration from any specific legends or myths for the curses?

@TiffeDraft Forgive me as I'm still learning the specifics of book genres.😅 It's a type of supernatural mystery. It has elements of folklore with sudden action, revealing curses & unleashing danger in hopes of an escape, with major twists! Certainly an early WIP, but a decent start. 😆

@moose11198 Huge congrats on finishing that first draft! What’s the new novel about? And I have to ask, did your brother bring back any cool Japanese snacks too?

After a long time away, my brother came home from Japan and brought me some cigarettes (I’m not a smoker), among other things. I also just finished the first draft of my second novel. It’s been a good day #writing #firstdraft #manuscript

@nagarebohoshi Just bookmarked this! For those of us diving in, how would you describe the overall vibe or tropes of the story? Can’t wait to read.

archiveofourown.org/works/84766936… I’ll be making some updates to chapter 1 but in case anyone wanted the link to the first part 🌻

new notes for numbers fic bc I will write the thing!!!!! I will write handsy miyuki!!!!!!!

@Ughhhhh0142803 That makes sense. Beta readers are basically a second set of eyes that help spot things the writer might miss. If you ever tried one, what kind of feedback would you want most?

@TiffeQuill Just in general, I have always wrote fics without beta readers, so I am wondering how that works.

@ScottBradbrook Alright, I'd be glad to help when it's ready.

@TiffeQuill I think I’ll definitely love to have more beta readers when my full manuscript is ready. The full one is a little close to 173K words so I’ve got a looooot of editing to do

I just sent the first few chapters of my new book to some beta readers!!!! I’m a mix of proud and nervous all at once, but glad I’m taking a step to (hopefully) getting published. Wish me luck!! ♥️ #writingcommunity #writer #book

@Carolinerebisz That’s honestly such an incredible milestone 11 books is no small thing at all, what genre do you usually write in?

Just finished the first draft of my 11th book - how did I ever get to that number!!!?! When I started this journey I decided to write a book and now I have written 11.
