Hi! I'm Larry, and I'm new here! :D

I'm not sure if anyone's asked this yet, but here goes:
How did you guys find your beta-readers?
I'm currently writing the first few chapters of my Webcomic, and I'd like to get them looked over by someone with a little more experience than me.

I don't really have anyone who I could trust with this sort of thing IRL, so I was wondering if there were other ways to meet/acquire potential beta's.

Thank you, and have a nice Day/Night!

  • Hi Larry! Welcome to the SpiderForest hub!

    Hmmm... I'm in kind of a unique situation, in that I base my "script" on my already written novels.

    My beta readers are people whom I've met in places such as Fictionpress and a defunct forum called PBO. They are still my friends to this day.

    So you could go that route, but as far as Webcomic Script Betas, I don't really have a good idea how to do it.

    Yeah, I was thinking of asking around on some other Online Forums, so thanks for the tip!

    There is a discord for the site (link's at the bottom of the page) and there is a Webcomic-Clinic there, if you'd like some more real time discussion on things like this.
