Alatariel: I loved yours, too! Mar 3, 2024 16:26:54 GMT -6
Soliton: I have a question. What is the customary format to get to BETA readers? Kindle, PDF, or printed? Mar 6, 2024 15:01:00 GMT -6
Soliton: I have another question. Should I copyright and ISBN my draft for BETA readers? Mar 6, 2024 15:01:57 GMT -6
HDSimplicityy: Sanderson got Audible to apparently improve royalties to authors, especially indies. www.brandonsanderson.com/regarding-audible/ cool! Mar 6, 2024 19:00:09 GMT -6
ScintillaMyntan: I thought people usually just send their story directly to beta readers? Mar 7, 2024 10:20:51 GMT -6
RAVENEYE: - there's no reason to buy a copyright or ISBN before sending a story to beta readers. And I think format you send it in will depend on the reader. They'll probably specify how they want the file. Mar 7, 2024 10:32:06 GMT -6
Alatariel: Soliton - for betas, a google doc with commenting enabled is fine and totally acceptable. Doesn't need to be in an ebook format for betas. Mar 7, 2024 12:39:54 GMT -6
RAVENEYE: Be on the lookout for a contest and a ton of Poetry-related activities in April. :scribe: Mar 20, 2024 8:47:05 GMT -6
pelwrath: Verner Vinge passed away today. Mar 21, 2024 9:54:13 GMT -6
pelwrath: Yes, April poetry always a frustratingly relaxing time. Mar 23, 2024 8:50:23 GMT -6
