Question for you: How do you find people you trust to read your MS?
I’m not necessarily talking about full-on critique partners, but just people who will read it and tell you what they like and don’t — without stealing your idea for themselves.
I know our chapter president sends it to friends and family. Another of our members uses her book club as readers.
I think it’s time to find more people to read “Blind Date Bride” — all of it.
So far, two of my NARWA sisters have read through the first and second draft. I used feedback from the first read-through to do some revisions, then passed it along to reader number two.
Now I’m thinking it’s ready for prime time … And that brings me back to my question: How do I find readers? (Guess that’s the $64,000 question, isn’t it … we’re all looking for readers.) 😉
I’ve been toying with the idea of asking for volunteers via Facebook … but is that a good idea? Anyone have any suggestions?
I found my writing partner on the Absolute Write forum. The hard part is that you can never know if you can trust who you find online but if you follow your instincts, you should be fine.
I would also love to read it as long as you don’t mind me taking a few weeks (I’ll have to squeeze it in when the baby is sleeping 😉 ). Email me if you’re interested!
