Fic Talk > General Discussion
Question of the day thread number 2!
RokofAges75:
The only betareading I've done has been for my collab partners. Usually it's just proofreading/editing, but sometimes we make suggestions for each other that we go back and revise.
mare:
I have been a beta for quite a few people to the point where it was a bit overwhelming. I finally just stopped when I saw one in particular who kept making the same mistakes over & over and no matter how many times I told her about it she continued to do it because she knew I'd just fix it for her. lol
Now, I'll occasionally read something for friends but it's usually not fanfic and just another person's eyes before being sent to an editor.
Sakabelle:
Ugh, yeah, that is the worst when they don't take your advice, they just expect that you'll fix it up so they don't try to learn and grow as a writer because they have you to fall back on.
mare:
It was just her being lazy and taking me for granted lol
mare:
Tonight's question:
Are you ever compared to any writers out there or find yourself trying to emulate someone's style?
I really couldn't think of a question lol if anyone else has one, post away!
