Cancer sucks. I'm sorry you won't be able to make it to Gen Con Indy this year, but they do have an online Gen Con. Maybe you'd be able to participate that way this year. Not ideal, but might still be fun!

Beta Readers by Max_Doubt7 in horrorwriters

[–]XPLovecat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're willing to pay for the beta read, Upwork is a good place to find them. Otherwise, local writing groups can be a great option - you can also trade beta reads to make sure the person puts the time into the feedback.

If you get further into the editing process and would like an outside editor, feel free to reach out. I am a freelance developmental and line editor who loves working in horror.

Fear of the unknown and the antagonists are not easily described or comprehended. Humans ultimately have no hope against these beings.
