Beta Reading Worksheet

Created by Kimberly Ann, May 01, 2016  198 views
Kimberly Ann Hi,
I am wondering if anyone out there has a good worksheet for beta readers to use while reviewing a manuscript. If so can you please contact me. I would like to see what other beta readers are using. I am an avid reader that is new to being a beta reading. I know what I like but want to be able to give back the best review that I can to those requesting a review. Thank you!
Sandra Holladay There are a lot of good suggestions at this site: http://jamigold.com/2014/08/introduci...

oh man. this is really great! plus since one of its sources is RWA, then it's sourced from a reputable organization.

A Virtual Assistant Can Help Alexandra Amor Sometimes you need specific help for your situation Indie authors often have an edge of control freakery … well, I do! I like being in control and I enjoy pretty much all aspects of being an author entrepreneur. But I hit a wall about 18 months ago, and I definitely needed some help, so I started looking for a virtual assistant to help me. I had a few varied experiences and learned some lessons, and then  Alexandra Amor reached out to me with some brilliant suggestions for how she could help. Alexandra is a children's author, but she is also a fantastic virtual assistant for me and a number of other authors.

I mean, clearly there are those of us, many of us, who either didn’t finish NaNo, or whose NaNo wasn’t long enough to finish our stories, and of course the answer for us is clear – finish that rough draft. For the rest of you, run your novel through spell-check, do a few read-throughs, make sure your story says what you want it to. I like to print it out at this stage, mark it up, write pages and pages of new material on the back, sort it out by chapter, making index cards for each one… There are a lot of ways to edit it, to clean it up and make it consumable by eyes-that-aren’t-our-own.

We have a great question this week from Kaina! All you Blogger folks listen up, because this one is just for you! I was just wondering since I have a blogger blog do you know of any good picture sliders I could find or the process in which to make one? I would appreciate it tons!!  Kaina To make the image slider work, you need to add some extra files to your site. We need to add one or two JavaScript files and one CSS file. Step 1: Add the jQuery library (if you don’t already have it). First, you need to figure out if you need to include jQuery or not. The easiest way to do that is to visit your block, right click, select  “View Page Source”  and do a CTRL+F search for  jquery . If you get a ...
