Looking for a beta reader

by Andrea Szabo
12th March 2025

Dear all, 

I am writing a novel inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

The content is almost there, but as I have challenged myself to write the book in British English (not being a native speaker), I would need a beta reader later. While I am (mostly) confident in my story, I am not so confident in my English - and I would hate it if people read "alien".

So I am looking for a beta reader to give me feedback on my language.

Is this the right place to ask?

If so, how does it work?

Who would like to read my novel about Frankenstein's creature who takes a different path that gives him the chance - or not - to redeem himself?

 

Thanks for contacting me, all the best - Andrea

Hi Andrea,

I've just registered on this website and am happy to offer myself as one of your Beta readers (I don't know why nobody else has offered?)

I am a part time British write, living in the south of England and have had a couple of romantic fiction stories published. However, my preferred genre is science fiction, although I have had no success on that front yet.

Fell free to send either a sample or all of your work when you are ready.

All the Best
