Subject: A beta's answer to Jade
In reply to: Kaylorin 's message, "A question for writers in this group." on 12:21:38 10/26/02 Sat

Speaking as someone who betas regularly for up to five writers at a time; I have my name on a number of sites, but you really have no way of regulating the number of people who'll contact you!! I try to reply to all my alphas in no more than two days, but it's pretty hard. I also keep everyones' work in separate folders on my DTP, colour-coded as to who is due for a reply next, and yet I still get confused. Once I even sent a girl back someone else's story saying something like:'Well done...this is a much better chapter!' So very embarrassing.

But seriously, I love to beta. I may not be the best writer in the world, but I think my editing skills are excellent - thanks largely to years working in the advertising and publishing industry. I have three writers I'm editing WIPs for at the moment but I could spare some time for you Jade, as long as you're not too prolific! Anyway, here's my email.

But I will save your addy for the future!
