Someone typically posts the worksheet in this section of the forum.  If you want to be a beta reader, you put your name and details on the sheet.  If you need a beta reader, you check out who is available and if they read your genre.

Beta reading was honestly my favorite part of the competition so far. Super excited to see more stories and get some feedback this second round!

Nervous and excited and hoping my one year old and four year old cut me some slack tomorrow. Confused

Hard agree that beta-ing is almost the most fun part. I'm going to be on the road for a lot of tomorrow so I don't know if I'll have time, but I'm going to try while spouse is driving! :)

Good luck!

I forgot it was tomorrow and planned for a big cleaning organizing day for the fam. 

Oops! Guess I'll have an excuse to sit this one out. ;)

Excited about getting started on round 2! However, I still didn't get my feedback on my round 1 story.

Check spam folder?  I’d definitely email NYC if you haven’t gotten it yet.

I haven't gotten mine either (not in spam or anywhere else, unfortunately).  I did send an email but haven't heard back yet.  I am sure there is a lot to do for this comp so I'm trying to be patient (but I'm excited!).  

I was wondering if anyone else had this situation, so b66002, while I'm not glad you're missing feedback, I'm glad you posted!  Thankfully we can beta read and comment on each other's stories while we're waiting.  :)  I've gotten some pretty good feedback just off of the forums!  Best of luck to you and all!

My feedback went directly into my trash folder - not my spam folder.  Don't know why!
