Beta Readers

Hi everyone,

I'm just coming to the end of yet another edit on my debut novel, Blackfeather and am hoping to self publish, in e-book version anyway, by the 1st of december this year.

However, I'd really like a few beta readers before I go ahead but other than friends and family I'm not sure where I'd find them.

Does anyone know of a group or individuals who might be interested in doing this and would do it for free as I'm on a super tight budget?

The manuscript is a paranormal romance/adventure with angels and is around 73,500 words. Ideally I would need to have any feedback by the end of August, preferably sooner.

Thanks

Nel

I have a circle of writer friends who read mine and edit; they all do NWS critiques so their input is invaluable.

The thing I didn't do last time was gt it proof read by someone else - you always miss things however many times you go through it. I'm paying someone £50 to do mine in future - I get my edits done for free by my writing friends.

can't help with where to find beta readers -perhaps ask on twitter or facebook?
