A New Service for Writers
The original No Disclaimers is a group of writers who once honed our skills by writing fanfiction in various fandoms. But fanfiction requires a disclaimer, a statement that reminds the reader that this is basically someone else's world, and someone else's work. We want to write with No Disclaimers.
And we bet you do, too.
The fanfiction world is filled with betas--writing guides who proofread and offer guidance on an author's fanfiction or "fic." But we at No Disclaimers understand that sometimes those of us writing original fiction or nonfiction need a beta, as well.
This beta service is for those writers who need a practiced, skilled, insightful, and kind-but-firm read over their stories, chapters, or articles. You're past the "my mom read this and thought it was great" stage, but you're not quite to the "I'm sending it to an agent/publisher/professional editor" stage.
That's where we come in. And we charge far less than a professional editor does.
Every submission you send our way will have at least two pairs of eyes looking it over. You can request more if you want. You can stick with the same two betas, or you ask for new sets of eyes the next time you submit.
No Disclaimers Beta Services makes some firm promises to our clients. We will never pull our punches--if something needs to be said about your submission, you can bet we'll say it. But we're writers, too, and since we know what it's like to give your creation into the hands of strangers, we'll always seek to help you improve your craft in an encouraging way. And who couldn't use a little encouragement?
Just email your submission to NoDisclaimerBetas@gmail.com, and we'll help you get that story ready for the next stage. Thank you, and keep writing!
