@asillylittlepal Odio que todos hablen de Beta Readers y sus soluciones siempre son Beta Readers pero, dónde se supone que consigo uno?? Mis amigos no leen, mi familia tampoco, el tema de mi fic es demasiado "raro" para las demás personas y conseguir a un hablante nativo de otro país es difícil!

"but english isn't my first lang-" get a beta reader
"but I used it for checking gram-" get a beta reader
"it was just one scene I was stuck w-" get a beta reader
fandom is about community. use that community to your advantage and just get a beta reader. not claude, a human

If your story makes sense in your head but feels slightly “off” on reread…
it’s usually a distance issue , not a talent issue 👀📖
This is exactly the kind of thing beta readers help with.

Plot? pacing? characters?
I’m curious, let's talk about it 👇📖

how can I find a beta reader 🚬
ki 🏎️ ia 📚@twolongiez
people saying they would never get a beta reader because they don’t want to waste someone’s time okay a) why are you calling your art a waste of time and b) you drastically underestimate the amount of people who will beta read your work for free just because they like it

if anyone would like a beta reader for literally any fandom. HI

what’s the hardest part of your current draft right now?
Be honest 👇📚
#amwriting #writingcommunity
English
@LHDavisWriter Excessive detail will sneak up on you 😭
Focus on what actually moves the story or builds the moment, everything else can be trimmed to keep it flowing.
I can help you tighten it up if you’d like ✨
English
@silently_loud_0 Plot will humble you every time 😭
Focus on your core conflict and make sure every scene builds toward it, everything else can be trimmed or adjusted.
If you want, I can help you tighten it up ✨
English
@Jess1358385 That balance is everything 😭
Focus on keeping your message layered but your delivery clear and engaging, depth doesn’t have to feel heavy.
If you want, I can help you refine it so it hits deep and stays readable ✨
English
@authorwfischer Endings will really test you 😭
A good fix is to make sure it feels earned, slow it down a bit, resolve the key threads, and give the story space to land instead of wrapping too quickly.
If you’d like, I can help you refine the ending so it hits stronger ✨
English
@freshandcoolish That feeling is so real 😭
Don’t overthink it, just get the words down messy first, you can always refine later.
If you want, I can help you shape it once it’s on the page ✨
English
@Tife_read I think I'm just struggling to put words on the paper 😭
English
@hoglegpress That’s actually a good problem to have 😭
Don’t move it, just add a short transition to let it breathe and guide the final stretch.
I can help smooth it out if you’d like ✨
English
@Tife_read I wrote a great climactic scene that ties up multiple plot lines and sets up the last 3rd of the trilogy and I need to find a way to taper this off gracefully. The problem is the scene is very organic where it is.
English
@FictionsByAj Formatting will test you 😭
Keep it simple, clean font, consistent spacing, and proper chapter breaks.
If it gets overwhelming, I help authors get their manuscripts clean and properly formatted for release so they don’t have to stress over it ✨
English
@Tife_read Formatting the damn thing! I just really dont want to.
English
@jessytemple That’s the tricky side of expanding a plot 😭
A good fix is to map out your main plot and subplots, then check that every scene either moves the story forward or supports the core conflict, anything that doesn’t can be trimmed or adjusted so everything fits more naturally.
English
@Tife_read Plot. As I've expanded it, I need to make sure everything fits.
English
@SNSOfficial98 That’s such a real struggle, especially with short stories where every word has to pull its weight 😭
Reworking the foundation can feel scary, but it usually means you’re leveling the story up. What part feels the least utilized right now?
English
@Tife_read I'm writing a short story collection right now and for me it's all about efficiently and skillfully getting my messages across. Some parts just don't feel utilized well. For one of my stories, I might have to rearrange some fundamental things, which is a little scary.
