Longtime-message-board-lurker, first-time-message-board-participant. I like to read Martin Amis and Ian McEwan. I would very much like to beta-read if I can find things where I might be able to help.

All the best,
Morlay

Oh, boy! Anybody who's interested in beta reading for others is likely to become pretty popular. Way to start with your best foot forward, Morlay.

Maryn, pleased to meet you

Glad to have you. Hope you are able to make use of the resources here. Are you writing anything currently?

Many thanks everybody! Thanks for your question, Robert. No, I’m not really committed to anything at the moment. I wrote a novel over the past couple years. I haven’t been able to get anyone interested in it yet but, even so, I’m now in a phase where I think writing actually is mega-important after all. I will take up another project soon but first I’m hoping to improve my skills and hopefully find other people who are in the same place - making reading and writing a priority in their lives even at the expense of other important things.

Thanks again for responding and will look out for you all on the website!

I'm polishing the second book of a two-book erotica series. The first book is with a beta reader. She likes it, which pleases me all to hell.

Welcome to the forums! May you find a lovely variety of chances to offer feedback and beta-ing.

As for my projects, I'm slowly inching forward on a sci-fi/fantasy epic, an alternate history murder mystery, a webcomic, and a straight up fantasy adventure (none of them even close to being done... yet).
