Question of the Week: If you could beta read for any author who would it be and why?
There are so many great authors that I would fall at their feet to beta read for but if I had to pick just one it would have to be J.R. Ward.
As to the reasons why; I would like to say it had something to do with watching the story come together first hand, the characters develop, seeing it all raw and all that but I'll be honest. I'm not a patient person, I just want to get my hands on the story early without having to wait for all the publishing hoopla and release. lol I want it now, now, now! ;) I think a lot of you all can relate. True.
I think Olivia Cunning would be great to read for as well. I've seen her make some comments about the editing process that makes me curious as to how her Sinners would be pre-edit. Hmmm...Yes, I think I would like to see that very much. So ladies, if you need someone to look things over for you I'm available! Wow, sounds like a really bad line in a single's ad doesn't it? lol
Have a great weekend everyone!

I would pick the same authors! Love your choice in books ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! I'd love to be privy to the Warden's thought processes, too, and Olivia sounds like she'd be great to beta for.

Oh yeah Ward would be great! It would definitely be interesting :) Haven't read Olivia Cunning yet but from what I've heard that would be a good time too!

love JR Ward & was going to pick her, but I ultimately went w/Nalini Singh.
ReplyDeleteLove the question this week Crystal, have a great weekend ;)
Great choices! I couldn't pick just one to be honest. There are just too many wonderful authors out there.
