ROYAL ROGUE - Beta Reader's Needed

Hear, ye Hear, ye! I have reached the phase in my romance novel writing process where I am in need of beta readers.

What does that mean?

Do you have a lot of opinions on stories in the fantasy genre? On dragon romance? Or on trans/nonbinary representation in stories? You're an adult? Then you're the kind of person I'm looking for! A beta reader is someone who gives all the input on story/characters/what's missing/what seems confusing - you are the view for the writer to see past the cloud of their creation to find out how readers will feel about their story.

What does this NOT mean?

If you aren't comfortable giving thoughts/feedback and don't read in the genre I'd say hold off for when I reach the final stages of the book to read it instead.

Great, I'm interested - What's the story about?

Valentine was born to be the royal heir to the kingdom of the Sun. Forced to choose between being a prince or princess, they decide to throw it all away to work on becoming a rogue at the local thieves guild instead. Training to one day be adept enough to run away and leave the strict control of their unsympathetic mother for good. Sent on a quick retrieval mission in the nearby mountains, they instead encounter a highly unusual dragon by the name of Asrir. A collector of oddities and very much one himself. The two of them bond over their frustrations with societal expectations and find quick friendship. Over time friendship blooms to love and the two of them face both the challenge of admitting their feelings and escaping the clutches of the queen.

Over arching theme: In a world built by the gods for balance - where do people in the in-between belong?

Features:

Transmasc Nonbinary love interest

75% trans characters / fairies with magic to help people transition

Found family

Dragons

High fantasy

Slow burn friends to lovers

Happy ending

High heat dragon sex scene 18+

Content Warnings: Transphobia (hinted at and 1 scene directly), verbally abusive mother, magical drug use (1 time at a party), body horror with immolation themes, self hatred

Feel free to comment in the replies here or send me an ask if you're interested so I can give next steps!

The more she searches for answers and for connections to her past, the more she discovers that her death and her life are not all as they first appear.

Beta request for Harringrove fic

Hi!! I need a beta for a fic for an event.

I need another pair of eyes on SPAG, plot holes and characterisation.

I don’t think this time I have any trigger warning, just a little bit of hurt/comfort but nothing extreme; I’m obviously open to give other details if needed!

Rating I think Teen and Up but might switch to Mature just to play it safe.

The fic it's complete and it's almost 7k, I’m in no rush but I might needed it in march.

If anyone might be interested feel free to DM me. Tnx 💜

I know this is a big ask, but does anyone have bandwidth to beta read the last chapter of Laws Of Attraction? Fair warning it is just short of 10k words and about 3k of those words are smut NSFW. I promise to return the favor in the future and will pay you in virtual friendship. Please feel free to slide into my DMs if you are interested, thanks in advance :)

Like House MD, time travel, radical canon divergence, and author-self-insert isekai fanfics? Beta readers wanted!

Welp it seems the brainrot I contracted from @acrownforaking is compelling me to write my own House MD isekai fanfic featuring an author-self-insert who unexpectedly reality shifts / time travels from January 2024 in our universe to January 2004 in the Houseverse, then immediately decides to seize this opportunity to unfuck the shitshow that is Greg House's life while simultaneously rewriting 20 years of history with nothing but her shitty memory and her hubris to guide her.

Unfortunately, while I've spent the past 30+ years reading 100+ million words of fanfic in various fandoms, my only previous experience in writing fanfic has consisted of starting and then abandoning a few Dragon Age and Baldur's Gate 3 fics. I wrote thousands of words, but I wrote the scenes out of order as the ideas came to me. I never published even a single chapter of those fics on AO3 because my writing process failed to produce a coherent Chapter 1 before getting hopelessly bogged down in obsessively researching the lore of the games' settings.

I've learned from my mistakes and this time I'm going to force myself to write my story in chronological order so I can begin publishing chapters while it's still a WIP. I've heard that those sweet sweet dopamine hits from AO3's email notifications can be a great incentive to keep writing. Plus the Houseverse being nearly identical to our own universe means there's very little setting-specific lore for me to research.

I'm seeking beta readers both for the usual reasons (motivation, accountability, and general writing feedback) and to help me untangle the messes I'll be making every time my OC uses her foreknowledge to force a radical deviation from show canon and/or IRL recent history. So, if you're the sort of person who enjoys pointing out a plan's fatal flaws or rooting out logical inconsistencies, then oh boy would I love for you to rip my drafts apart. Make both my OC and me cry. Please.

Warning: This fic will be dark. The source material is already pretty fucking dark -- House MD canon includes all four of the major archive warnings -- and my story will likely include even more potential triggers than in canon because one of the major themes will be how quickly things can spiral horribly out of control when you think you can predict the future.

So, if you have any triggers that you avoid reading about for the sake of your mental health, you probably shouldn't volunteer to beta read my fic because I won't be working on the trigger warnings until the final polishing for publication. It would be safer to wait until I've posted on AO3 to read it because I plan to break the chapters up so that triggering content is quarantined in its own separate chapters that can be briefly summarized and skipped.

Please let me know if you're interested in beta reading chapters before they're published on AO3. Any level of involvement welcome -- I am fully aware that most people don't have the time or interest to volunteer as a copyeditor or developmental editor! Quick feedback like "he would not fucking say that" or "yo there's a giant plot hole over here" would be super helpful to me too. Thanks in advance!

Hello! So I've reached the point where I believe it is time for me to get some extra eyes on my WIP. And what better place to throw it out than here?

At around 80k words, Keep Me Breathing is a fantasy novel set in a distant future where people live underground in a huge cave system. Fubuki and Sakura couldn't be more different. Fubuki have no intentions to either leave the comfort of her home, or make new friends. Sakura on the other hand can't stay put. She loves adventure and being a finder comes naturally to her. But when Sakura's son disappears they both leave their home town to follow the only lead left behind. The search takes them to Lucif's Library, a bandit attack, a hospital and more. When they finally learn the identity of the kidnapper, they realize that it's much bigger than just one child.

This is the sixth draft and will potentially be moving on to either a seventh draft or a hired editor, depending on beta feedback.

Sign-ups last until: July 28th

The actual time frame for beta reads is: From August 1 to September 1. If you need more than a month, don't worry! Any help is appreciated and I am flexible!

What I'm asking for:

Please have at it! Grammar, characterization, issues with story—nothing is off-limits.

That said, I will send out more specific questions. (Because I know that sometimes it's easier to answer existing questions) Like if the pacing works, if the plot is clear and if the characters feels like they stay, well... in character.

There will also be the question about if you think the title feels fitting.

What you get in return:

Return betas. It doesn't have to be immediately. If it's in a month or even year from now that's okay. It also doesn't have to be one long project. I will gladly take on more short ones getting up to around 80k words in total.

I do have a history in music and audio recording (keep in mind that it was a few years ago since I dabbled in it) so if you want a simple song written for your work instead I can give it a try. (Simple guitar and vocals.)

CONTENT WARNINGS:

The book deals with grief, kidnapping, swearing and violence.

It also contains some sexual harassment, child abuse and emotional trauma.

As well as Alcohol & Cigarettes

If you're unsure about if it contains something I might've missed, feel free to ask. I would not want to expose you to something that triggers you simply because I didn't think about it.

I admit that I stole this format from @blind-the-winds. (I hope you don't mind, it was just so good.)

Seeking Beta Readers

Hello everyone! 

I’m looking for beta readers for a short, original story of mine in the fantasy genre. I’m hoping to get it published, so I’m looking for as much feedback from as many people as possible so that I can make this story the best it can be.

It’s a story about the dangers of falling in love with a force of nature.

If anyone’s interested or knows of good beta readers or good places to find beta readers, please message me on here to discuss details.

Thank you all!

In Search of a Beta 💖📝

Hey all!

As I make my way through this process of writing my current book, I am seeking somebody who has interest in helping with any of the following:

Beta reading for grammatical, punctuation, & spelling errors.

Beta reading for flow, readability, & first impressions

Beta reading for plot, continuity, & character development

If English is your native language, that's really the only requirement. I don't have a college degree in anything and I try not to take myself too seriously.

You'd be great for this if you have a willingness to be honest and aren't afraid to hurt my feelings in pursuit of literary excellence.

You'd be great for this if you are comfortable with heavy smut, M/F/M, and enjoy most of the story's themes (werewolves, snowed-in, enemies-to-lovers, a/b/o, social injustice/dystopia, pregnancy, gendered powerplay dynamics).

And most of all, you'd be great for this if you're a friendly fanfic nerd like me!

I will be very pleased to credit you as an editor/beta/contributor on the project's copyright page.

I am happy to beta works in return, if you are a writer yourself.

I'm not asking for a massive committment: if somebody only has x amount of help to give, that's help I'll gladly take! And if you think you'd like to help but then find you want to stop, no hard feelings!

(btw: I realize the book summary is SO godawfully trite, but that's just marketing. The writing itself isn't like that 🤣.)

"Eight months trapped in a cabin with two very sexy alpha werewolves and no birth control. That won't end badly"-- said literally no one ever

When her attempt to reinvent herself as an influencer doesn't go as planned, Bohdana "Bo" Harding winds up injured and stranded in the Idaho wilderness with less than three thousand followers, two werewolf captors, zero cell reception, and not much clue as to who she really is or what she truly wants.

Verne and Lucas Dearbourne have lived isolated in the mountains for years, and they've all but given up on the notion of a traditional pack life. But with an unclaimed female snowed into their cabin for the winter, both alphas' urges to mate and breed come raging back to the forefront of their minds. How long can they hold back from claiming what they want?

A shifter MMF romance that explores themes of dominance and submission, found family, and tapping into one's hidden, primal nature.

If your interest is piqued or if you have more questions, comment below - or better yet, shoot me a message!
