Thank you!
I now have all I need.
However, when many found out I only wanted some short stories critiqued and not a novel, they lamented that their offering for exchange was longer. Technically, it's not fair. But, I don't care! I would love to read whatever you want to send me, no matter the length. That being said, it will take a bit longer to return to you than will a short, but if you're willing to wait, I'm willing to help.
Can't wait to work with you all.
Darn, I missed the boat! Would have been more than happy to critique whatever you have!
ReplyDeleteSo pleased you found the people, Clarissa, wish I could find a writing partner.
ReplyDeleteHi Clarissa - excellent news, thought you would .. and you have.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be a good mix and well worth the reads from all sides .. cheers Hilary
Excellent! Glad you found the readers you need :)
ReplyDeleteI missed that post, but I'd be willing also, any time....
ReplyDeleteI missed that post too :-( . Glad, though, you've found your critique partners. It's so important.
ReplyDeletecongrats, congrats!
ReplyDeleteKnew you'd have lots of offers! When I put out my request for help over a year ago, I was also overwhelmed. This community is awesome.
ReplyDeleteBeta readers are hard to come by. It's good that you found some to satisfy your need. I'm really liking the Sholes Key (it's moving along nicely). I love a good mystery and the whole autism angle the lady uses to befriend her target is something I'd never seen before.
ReplyDeleteI love what you're doing here, Clarissa, and it's one more way that blogging can help an emerging writer. Exchanging critiques is a fantastic way to learn to be the best writer you can be. I see too many writers hire an expensive editor too soon. You save a lot of time and money by learning everything you can from your peers first. I've blogged about that today.
ReplyDeleteYay!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to this, Clarissa!
ReplyDeleteFANTASTIC result!! Yay!!! Take care

I can't wait either, Clarissa *slavering for your work* :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're going to have some fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy you've found a bunch of new betas! yay! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Clarissa, well done. Your job ad worked wonderfully! You are a special person, not all about me, me, me. You give back to the writing community. I wish you bucketloads of success.
