Hi All, Please advise on whether there is a Flash Fiction Beta Readers Spreadsheet (2020). I found a link to a 2019 spreadsheet. Is this the current one? If so, what's the procedure re: the same? Do we just add our name to the existing one? Do we email proposed readers directly? I did not realise that there were so many offshoots to this question.  Thanks in advance for any information. All best, Mary.

Yes there was/is one. I just bumped it up to page one of the "Creative Writing Corner" for you.

Have you listed your story on the forum? That is the best way to get feedback at this point! The beta spreadsheet is used during the actual writing of the story, not after! :) ------------- Micro Fiction 2020 R1 G51 - https://forums.nycmidnight.com/r1-g51-roadkill-roulette-comedy_topic36953_post390218.html#390218" rel="nofollow - Roadkill Roulette (Comedy) |

Hi steph9289, Thanks for the information. I listed my story on the forum after I'd submitted. I've gotten a lot of feedback, including the recommendation that I should think about getting beta readers for future reference. I've added my name to the 2020 list. I wasn't aware that you could get others to read it prior to submission. Newbie wobbles. Hopefully, I'll have a chance to use/avail of it next month within the 48hr timeframe. Thanks again. All best.
