THE RETURN

Howdy y'all! So we've made some matches that'll hopefully be posted soon.  We're back in business! <3.  Sorry for the wait, but we'd love to thank you all for your patience. :) - Beth

Yaaaas! Bethany is totally right--the project is still ongoing, but we paused for a bit as we transition into end-of-the-year activity and summer (: I told an anon a while ago that if you don't see your app on the waiting list, chances are it's on my Google Docs so that's a thing. Sorry for any inconvenience! -- Tati

Hey! It's been a while since any matches were made and all the of the Q&A page is fairly old as well, so I just wanted to check in and see if this project is still going? If it's just taking some time (which I can only even imagine) then great! Thanks so much for doing this, guys! I swear finding a reliable beta is harder than the actual writing.

OMG, sorry.  Yes this project is definitely still ongoing.  It’s just been really slow because it’s been impossible for us to find a date to take some time and talk about matches.  I know y’all are probably a thousand percent done with hearing excuses, but Tati isn’t near a comp too often as her family is getting ready to move to the state her college is in and I’m in the exam/prom/grad crunch in the final weeks of school.  Come summer, comes time!

Uhhmm.. I know your busy guys but I was just wondering why my application didn't make it to your blog. I meant that i was expecting my application to appear in the waiting list but I have been checking it for a week and still no sign of mine. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience... I know you guys are pretty stressed out so goodluck..

Hi! No inconvenience. Actually, you're probably in my Google Docs as we speak. In addition to putting everything on the waiting list, I take all the applications and put them into a Google Docs folder by genre. So chances are that if we lose something, it'll be there! Since I'm (Tati) on mobile 90% of the time, Beth (who is actually on a trip!) is the one who posts the submissions (: I promise you're not forgotten! Haha. You're probably just on my Google waiting list. If you have any concerns, don't hesitate to message us off anon and I can reply to you privately. Have a good day!

Hi! I never heard from my match but I would still like to find a beta reader. Would you mind if I submit another application? Thanks!

Of course! (:Bethany is out of town, and I'm about to graduate in a week (yayyyy!) so things have been sort of hectic for us. But, as soon as summer hits, we can finally get together on Skype and definitely make sure we get some matches for you guys like we were in the beginning. Thanks for the patience!

An Apology

Hey y'all, we're so so so so sooo sorry for the inactivity lately.  Just a billion and sixteen things have been popping up between us two such as university course selections, university tours, tornado warnings, and any other soap opera drama interference you could think of chuckin in.  Honest to God, we will try and make some more matches ASAP.  Sorry for the wait, but thank you for your patience! :)

How do I submit an application? I'm looking for a beta reader. Thank you! :)

Sorry guys! :O

K so I've had a hardcore emotionally investing psych ap exam, which is why I've had no time to discuss matches with Tati.  I suck.  Anyway, since that horse has been shot in the face, or some morbid saying like that, we'll defo get back on track with some new matches tomorrow! Hopefully, nothing this horrendous pops up. ever. again.

I'm looking for someone to help motivate me to write more and also bounce ideas off of and such and it'd be great if I could do the same for them. I haven't written much of anything in years, and I really want to get back into it. Basically I'm looking for someone who is both a beta and a writer who is also looking for both a beta and a writer. Do you think I could find someone like that here? If not, do you know where I could?

We have 2 people who submitted both beta applications and writer applications. (: I'm sure we can find you someone who is willing to read what you write as well as help bounce ideas. Just submit and application and let us know that you're looking for a beta/writer!
