Just wanted to put a suggestion forward to the story forum... maybe we could have a beta-reader section where people can post offering to be or looking for beta/proof readers?
I thought it might be handy esp for people who don't have English as their first language or feel that their spelling and grammar might be a little off. (And for people like me who enjoy helping others with such problems, lol)

Great idea Zen!!
What do you ladies think? Is there enough interest in this to make it work?
How exactly would it work? Post the work here, or should women who would enjoy doing this sort of thing post that they are interested, and the work happens outside of the board?

Well my idea was for the second option... I mean that way the story can be anything at all kind of and also you don't have to post till anyone's beta-d.
So you might, say, post to the board that you have a story you'd like beta-d or even looking for someone who can beta your stories for some time. And then if you'd like to beta for someone you can post and offer to do that!
Is that making sense? Im waiting to go to lunch and starving... lol _________________ ~ A woman should be an illusion. (Albert Einstein) ~
