Maybe a little premature because assignments just went out, but I figured I'd get everything ready ahead of time!
A few things to keep in mind for folks new to the beta process!
Here's the beta sheet for whenever folks start getting their drafts together! Happy writing! |

Thanks for kicking this off! I always use betas, but this challenge is especially nerve-wracking. Rhyming AND Historical Fiction!

lol, yes Basically, fill this out if you want to swap stories with someone not in your group to check for errors or give notes on structure/story before submission. In the first column, you'll put "Open" or "Closed" based on if you have time to give notes to someone else. You can check the sheet for "Open" people and send them a link to your story to read and give notes on (Google docs works well, but some people will note if they'd like it in a different format). You can take or leave the notes they give you, but it's a good way to hone your story for submission.

Here's a question - is it a faux pas to post to Beta if you don't have a finished draft? I have been kind of stumped for the first part of this week, and have something now, but it's not finished. Do I need to find some way or other of finishing it before submitting for a Beta read, or can I ask for ideas on a direction to take it from here?
Thanks!

This is what betas are for! Definitely get some beta eyes on your story, and they should be able to give you ideas.
