A step not to be missed
You’ve written your manuscript, redrafted, polished. You’re
ready to send it to a publisher or agent. But there’s a vital and valuable step
to take first: beta reading.
A beta read is when someone who’s not an editor or other
industry professional looks at your entire manuscript; the concept being that
you are your own ‘alpha’, or first, reader and your beta readers are your
second readers.
