Wandmaker - Beta Reader

Your feedback is invaluable to me, and I want to ensure this process is enjoyable and productive for both of us. Please read through the criteria, dos, and don'ts before reaching out to volunteer. Please note that I am only looking for 2 beta readers at this time.

Criteria for Beta Readers

• Passion for Reading: You should enjoy reading webnovels, especially within the fantasy genre.
  
• Attention to Detail: Your keen eye will help spot inconsistencies, plot holes, and other issues.
  
• Constructive Feedback: You should be able to provide constructive criticism that helps improve the story.
  
• Reliability: Please commit to providing feedback within the agreed-upon timeframe.
  
• Confidentiality: Respect the confidentiality of the unpublished content you’ll be reading.
  
• Age: As this is a mature story with suggestive themes beta readers must be 18 years old or older.
  

Dos and Don'ts for Beta Readers

Do:

• Provide Honest Feedback: Be truthful in your opinions about characters, plot, pacing, and world-building.
  
• Be Specific: Point out exact sections or lines where you felt something was off or particularly well done.
  
• Highlight Both Positives and Negatives: Balance your critique by mentioning what you liked along with areas that need improvement.
  
• Be Respectful and Professional: Frame your critiques in a respectful and helpful manner.
  
• Stay on Schedule: Provide your feedback within the deadlines we agree upon.
  

Don't:

• Don’t Plagiarize or Share Content: Do not share any part of the manuscript with others or use it in any way outside of providing feedback.
  
• Don’t Be Overly Critical Without Solutions: It’s okay to point out problems, but also try to suggest possible improvements.
  
• Don’t Ignore Instructions: Follow any specific guidelines or questions I might provide for the feedback.
  
• Don’t Focus Only on Grammar and Typos: While noting these is helpful, your primary focus should be on the story and characters.
  
• Don’t Be Vague: Avoid general statements like “I didn’t like it” without explaining why.
  

If you think you meet these criteria and can adhere to these guidelines, I’d love to hear from you! Please contact me via DM on Discord with a brief introduction about yourself and why you’re interested in being a beta reader for "The Chronicles of a Scalebound Sage."

Thank you for helping me make this story the best it can be!
