Is there anything more exciting than...

...watching your beta readers move through your story, leaving comments as they go?

(There's a lot NOT to like about Google Docs, but this aspect of it is so cool.)

Watching comments come in is entertaining, but there are a lot of things I find more exciting.

Surely one of top things.

I'll have to take your word for it.

I mean, we're writers of erotica. It shouldn't be too hard to come up with a hundred things more exciting without even trying.

My contribution - A yacht full of naked and coked-up Playboy models circa 1958.

Call me old-fashioned, but I like a nice printed stack of manuscript paper with edits and suggestions made in pen! Nothing is more exciting than reading through your own book after you've been absorbed in it for months.

That just gave me a shiver.

Personally, I have been so fortunate to have incredibly talented and generous people help me. I won't embarrass them by naming them, but I love recieving a story they have edited, proof read. Then unlocking the comments and suggestions.
It is an uplifting experience. It is every bit as rewarding as seeing it appear posted.

I think it is special, it fills me with encouragement, and inspires me to try harder. When you work with friends, yes they have all become close friends. You don't want to let them down, it brings out determination. It empowers you...

This is a great thread because it gives me a chance to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to the people who have generously offered their assistance....

So... Thank you to all who have helped me...
