The 2nd Draft of 'War with Elves' is complete! Do you want to beta read it?

Aug 20, 2022 2:05 am

Hello again!

I did it.

At long last, I did it. I got to type the sweetest words a writer can write: "The End."

Does it matter that it's the second time I've written those words for this particular book? Well, when you re-write the second draft from scratch like I did, finishing is still pretty meaningful.

It might have been an unnecessary level of effort, though.

I've instructed my wife to splash a glass of ice-cold water in my face the next time I say: "I think I might do a complete re-write of this one ..."

I'm going to rest for a little while, I think.

Beta reading

Would you like to beta read 'War with Elves: For Profit and Amusement'?

Just reply to this email and we can sort out the details.

I'll be making the book available in as many formats as possible, including the built-in Storyorigin beta reading system. Let me know your preferred methods of reading / feedback and I'll see what I can do to accommodate it.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to give a copy to everyone that asks. Beta team members and people who have beta read for me before are guaranteed a copy. For everyone else, it will be on a first-come-first-served basis. If you're interested, be sure to let me know as soon as you can.

You can reply directly to this email, or paste this email address, or just click the button:

When will beta copies be available?

As quickly as possible.

There are a few medium-sized plot holes and inconsistencies. I have to sort them out before the story is fit for human consumption. Since I'm aware of them and I have a plan for what to do, it shouldn't take me very long.

I can't give a hard date, since I'll be fairly busy with other stuff, but hopefully it will take two or so weeks.
