Icesk8ergrrl86 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I'm looking for someone to read my stories and help me make them better. You can be as brutal as you want and completely rip it apart, I'm ok with that. Also, I'm looking for someone I can bounce ideas off of to get another opinion and I'm willing to beta and be a sounding board for anyone else in return. I don't have much experience but I have done it before. All I ever write is original fiction so there's no fandom specific stuff. Most of my stories involve figure skating to some degree but I'm a figure skater myself so you don't really need to know much or anything at all about that. I'm in need of a beta reader for one story in particular right now but I'm writing others too. The one in particular doesn't have a title yet but it's original slash with lots of plot involving figure skating and will probably feature explicit sex at some point. My basic plot is that my main character is a figure skater recovering from an injury and afraid to do a certain jump but at the same time he's just been hired as a stunt double for a movie about the life of his idol, another figure skater.

Cuzosu Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Well, so long as I don't have to know about figure skating, I can beta for you if you need me to. PM me if you'd like that, and I'll give you my email address so we can get to work. I pretty much guarantee I won't rip you apart about anything, though I do give lots of constructive criticism and I may tease you a bit now and then. Sounding board? I can do that--and I'll use you as one of my sounding boards, too. I already have several, but another never hurts, and I can bounce your ideas off them, too, to get you another few opinions. I have no problems with slash or explicit scenes, so we're good there. Let me know, hm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icesk8ergrrl86 Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Okay, so this is the part where I confess how unintelligent I can be sometimes. So, I got tired of checking back here and not getting any replies and and apparently I signed up with an old email address that I haven't checked since like 2009 so I didn't get the notification email until um...now? I'm not working on that particular story anymore, I've moved on to other things. But if you're still interested in beta reading and being a sounding board for me, I'd love that. I'd be happy to be your sounding board too. I've been told I'm good at that because I'm opinionated, maybe a little too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GothDarkkeDragon Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 If you're still looking for a beta/idea bouncing, I'd be willing to fill the role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
