Matilda Scotney:
Thanks for the reply, Matilda. Awesome answer. I have uploaded my first 7 chapters on Inkitt. I realise you are busy like us all but if you can give it a look and comment I would appreciate your expertise. I have Grammarly but haven't heard of prowriting aid (will check this out). The big question I have besides friends is how to get reliable beta readers ???? All the best and hope to keep chatting, Hamish.

Happy to give it a look Hamish. Would you mind emailing to matildascotney@gmail.com. It will be kept completely private. I have never accessed Inkitt before. But I am happy to help if I can.
Beta readers, hmmm. Are you a member of Writer's and Authors Promotions on Facebook? I have seen members asking for beta readers there with positive responses but I can't vouch for how good/reliable they are. If you have friends who are willing to read and comment after you give them a clean manuscript (one you have edited) and who will undertake to get back in a reasonable amount of time (I expect ten days from mine), then go with them.
