I'm a newbie remember. A still wet-behind-the-ears writer as I mentioned before. I just learned that Beta Readers are a group of people who read your pre-published work. I also remember reading way back how this one writer who was also targeting the Young Adult audience got a group of young adults & shared her book with them by reading it out loud. It helped her writing a whole lot, 9 years later she's got several books & movies.
All that brings me to this. I'm gathering a small Beta Readers group with some young adults & adults. I'm excited & scared (but more excited than anything) about doing this. How exactly is it going to work, well I've modified it to fit me & my current situation right now. I plan to read a few excerpts from my manuscript & get some live feed back. I'm ready for the good, bad & ugly. I'm excited to put it out there & see if people like my Gitanita Catalina. So my group is going to meet this coming weekend, if I can get everyone's schedules to work out. I'll give an update next week & tell ya what the feedback was. Yes I'm figuratively biting my nails.
As always I appreciate your reading & come back again.
Remember I like questions & comments.
Saludos,
