I'm happy to beta some more, though I think I'm done sending mine out - if anyone wants to send my way, I'm my user name at gmail.

You email/exchange your stories and feedback.  Use the sheet to find someone who is ‘open’, not in your group, and maybe prefers your genre.  Send them a quick email and ask if they’re able to read now.

A good idea to do, just so you can get more eyes and thoughts on your story before the deadline.


There you go! Smile Obviously, prior to submission.

Thank you! I'll give the Beta sheet a try if I make it to the next round.

Nope, I deleted it and google docs now actually deletes files forever if they're in the trash for 30 days.

I'm not in this round anyway, but anyone can make one, it's easy.
