Looking For A Beta - FOUND!

[bigdogz09.livejournal.com]

Hello, I'm looking for a beta and can't remember the name of the site where I found one in the past.    I don't think  the site is active anymore.  Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find someone?  (I apologize to the mods if this request is not permissible and I will delete it promptly if it is inappropriate.)     Thanks, Laura


Betas found!  Thanks so much to all that responded!

Laura - found this in a previous post under the tags (I'm assuming since you're over here, it's a QAF story). There's a comm called "Betasinbabylon." Looks like it might still be active. Here's the link:

If that doesn't pan out, there is a category over at MW for people willing to beta. I would also be willing to volunteer for it if you aren't successful in your search; I've done beta work for several other authors - just send me a PM if you want me to help.

I'm glad to hear you're writing a new QAF story. Good luck; I'll be looking forward to reading it. ~Kim

Hi Kim,
Thanks for the heads up. I went to that site but the last shown entry was back in 2012 and there was no response to the beta request.

I put in an inquiry at MW but haven't heard anything yet. Perhaps others that come to this site might have some leads.

I really appreciate your offer, especially since you probably have a full, if not overflowing, plate. Hopefully, I won't have to impose, but... well, betas for QAF are hard to come by these days. Again, I really appreciate the offer.

All the best,

Laura

Laura, I could beta for you again if you'd like. I'm currently not betaing for anyone at the moment, so my schedule is wide open. I'll wait to hear from you...

Hugs
Cathy

Hi Laura,

I'd like to Beta, i'm an avid reader but not a (fiction) writer.
Write to me if you want to discuss it further.

I, too, am also available to beta.

Hi There,

I would suggest writing to the wonderful people that responded to my plea. They may still be available. Good luck!

All the best,

Laura

I guess... update your post? Lol, it's not a typical "link in comments" situation, but it would be nice to know you found a beta.

I'm not totally sure it fit under our rules or not, but your request was good by me. It was a search, after all!

Another place you could possibly try in future, though, is here:

It's not quite as busy as it was when first started, but looking for betas is one of the specific things they mention on their profile.
