Beta Reading 1 year, 1 month agoHah! That’s an interesting comparison, and thank you for it. If I assign a strangeness value (SV) of 5 to Sunken Land and, say, 8 or 9 to Viriconium, then Thirty days is mainly a 4 with the occasional 6. I am doing very different things. Thank you very much for the offer. I hope I can appeal to a wide range of readers.

Beta Reading 1 year, 1 month agoHi Ath, I’d be pleased to read Thirty Days if I’m the kind of reader you’re looking for. My experience of speculative fiction is limited. For instance I loved M John Harrison’s The Sunken Land Begins to Rise Again but soon gave up the first novel in his Viriconium series. That tipped too far into fantasy for me.
Feel free to see what other offers…[Read more]

Alex replied to the topic Short stories, flash and micro-fiction in the forum
Beta Reading 3 years, 4 months agoI have a piece of micro fiction (500 words) and a flash fiction (1,174 words). The flash could be classified as a thriller I suppose. The micro fiction possibly a coming-of-age if I had to peg it to a genre. Are these the kinds of pieces you would be interested in being a beta reader for?

Beta Reading 3 years, 7 months agoI’m very happy to beta read short stories, flash and micro-fiction.
I generally print out anything longer than a couple of pages as my reading skills engage better with hard copy. Therefore if you send me your work please number the pages. Thank you!
