Hmm the ebook is on amazon


message 5: by Lauren (new)

Lauren My work is called Sugar. It's a typical sweet NA book I guess but I'm working hard to make likeable characters that you'll route for. Think a link is on my profile. If not search for Sugar on goodreads creative writing tab :)

Thanks in advance

okay here's the thing I'm very bad at finding out titles (think that in my book I don't even have titles yet i'm trying to finish the story first and then see what fits).So,I'll recommend that you choose a title that best describes the plot of your book.For example,if I remember correctly your book is about a cult on an island and the MC finds out the truth in some books etc. How about connecting an item to that truth? "Waves of Truth" since it's on an island??? "Scrolls of truth??"


message 14: by Divya (new)

Divya (divyasreemanikandan) | 21 comments Okay so I'm writing two drafts simultaneously. "Oh my god" and "Magiselvania". I'm planning to take "Oh my god" as a triology and the ither one as a series. But they meet. The first one is on my Creative writing site, I'll leave the link below and Magiselvania is on google docs so I couldn't share it. I'll be posting it soon and I'll leave the link as soon as I do. Please comment and criticize my book. I need more ideas and for that I need to improve my writing style :)

Ive wrote this before but I just wanted everyone to know.

Arhazo (arhazobooks) | 32 comments I don't really need a beta reader I just need someone to talk to about the premise of my book because I'm getting caught in a web of possibilities. I could provide ch1 for context if it helps.

Also we can talk about your wip too.

Mine is a fantasy set in kind of a steampunk/ industrial revolution era (think LOK).

It's about witches, magic, mystery, and slow burn romance.

I see you already have some people but I'd also love to bounce ideas off each other- mine is set in a steampunk (pirate) setting too, so that's why I jumped on this.

I'd love to read this! Haven't read a historical fic in so long!


message 38: by John (new)

John Carey | 1 comments I'm about done with my first round of beta (more alpha than beta to be honest). It's a "mature" fantasy (meaning people swear, reference drugs, sex, other adult themes, etc). If anyone would be interested in helping out with round 2 (or beyond) just give me a shout!

Okay, I just read it, and I love it!!! I stormed through the three chapters, they're really nice and sweet, I think you manage to portray Lucy really nicely :D
Looking forward to the next chapter!

message 41: by Arhazo (new)

Arhazo (arhazobooks) | 32 comments Hi!

I'm looking for someone to send the first chapter of my WIP to. It's a fantasy novel about a witch who hates magic. I'm open to becoming writing buddies too, and can beta read fantasy.

Alexandra McLaughlin | 2 comments Hi!
I have a completed Young Adult novel ~64K words. The premise involves a formerly popular hockey player turning emo after his parents force him to move from the big city to a small town. There are tons of fun emo fashion and music references so if you're into that, you may enjoy this book! Let me know if you would be interested in reading it and giving me some feedback about the arc.
~Ally

Hey, would you be interested in beta-reading a YA fantasy novel that I've written? I'm working on the third draft so it's relatively polished. :-)
