Finding an Editor

Yes, you guys are right.  A beta is what I'm looking for, just confused the word.  I've never had an official beta reader.  I've let some writer friends read a few of my chapters, but never really on a regular basis for the purpose of beta reading.

And I agree that craigslist was sort of a waste of time, now that I've done it.  I got those first really quick responses and now nothing.  I'd definately rather have one of you guys on here anyway, just didn't really think to come here for some reason.

Now I just have to decide who to ask...I know pretty much every one of us that posts here in Author Craft are busy with a big project.

Well, thanks for the advice everyone...I shall go think on this.

0.5% of any eventual net and I'm in. ;D

blgarver:
half a percent?  lol.

Great place for receiving critiques: sff dot onlinewritingworkshop dot com.
Membership's 49$ a year, but any other writers' board I've ever tried didn't offer critiques beyond "oh, that's nice." At OWW, you get the real thing. (Brace yourself; sometimes it hurts.) The workshop is not meant to help with an entire novel, but you might "meet" someone there whose critiques are particularly helpful and who would like to continue exchanging reviews with you via email.

Good luck.

blgarver:
Cool, thanks for the info.  I'll check it out.
