Sharon,
Hey! I’m one third the way through your comments on the beta read you did for me, and it’s going well. I’ve solved the first chapter problem that was giving me hell! I had rewritten the first paragraph of my book, and rewritten the first chapter, too, so many times, I lost count. When I saw how the story “read” through your eyes, I knew what the problem was, and voila, I fixed it! Thanks again. May 1000 paper cranes find their way to your pineapple garden in Hawaii.

Hi–I need a beta read on a memoir about senior tennis–“Senior” tennis starts at 65 and goes on until you’re dead–an activity that depends on women tennis players–they live longer than men–the manuscript is 52K words–but it needs eyes other than mine–thank you! RRay
