Critiquematch, I love your site but you HAVE to be up for atleast one full 24hr period, PLEASE! 🙏

That no one will actually enjoy it. Most of my alpha readers--different from beta readers--are loved ones, none of which have actually sat down to read my first draft.

But I have a partner on critiquematch.com that keeps me straight.

Discovered there are AGENTS on critiquematch who will review your query letters and chapters at an affordable price. One of them is at an agency I hope to query in a few months!

I hesitated to share this, but people liked my previous org post about writing my debut, so here’s one more proof point.✍️

Tracking by chapter and reviewer. Each x is maybe two hours of work 😵‍💫 almost there!

How do you track your editing?

Honestly, I've been finding a lot of support from the #writingcommunity here on @bsky.app. My critique partner on CritiqueMatch.com has also been a huge support with all of the questions she asks and sending me links to help in my research for my WIP. She's amazing!

I found great critique partners with critiquematch.com

As a pantser I try to outline each time I have an idea. Rebecca Thorne 5 sentence method was helpful.

Another indication we’re in capitalist hell: critiquematch(dot)com is now a subscription based service.

Managed to get my critiquematch chapter backlog down from 14 chapters to 7 chapters so that’s sort of a relief.

My apologies to my CPs who are still waiting for detailed notes, I will get to you!

Every time I leave feedback on a chapter on critiquematch.com I go back and delete between 20 and 50% of my notes because I have a tendency to paint the page absolutely red (or yellow in the case of CM) and I don’t want people to look at my notes and be discouraged. 🫤

Hi Holly! Awesome to see someone from the CritiqueMatch side of the writing realm 😊 Ooh yes, I would love to see more of your story!!

No faster way to kill a website than to go from free to paid.

Nicely done, CritiqueMatch.

I sure as shit won't be using your services anymore.

The CritiqueMatch website, although sometimes glitchy, has been a great resource for me for connecting with other writers and swapping work, too! Just in case anyone wanted extra recommendations. :)

You can also try critiquematch dot org or com, can't remember :-)

I don’t think I’ve heard of critiquematch before. Is it an editing software?

It's one thing to take your previously free website and make it a paid service, but to then rebrand it as "Freemium" as if that's somehow going to fool the thousands of users who've been with you for YEARS, is beyond insulting.

Fuck CritiqueMatch.

You should check out critiquematch.com if you haven’t already!

I’m connected to a bunch of beta readers, it’s an exchange, so you read their chapters and they read yours.

There’s paid readers too, but I love the free exchange so far~

You can look at critiquematch.com to become a professional paid beta reader, you can also look at booksiren.com which signs up arc readers

Managed to get down from 16(!) critique match chapters to 5 tonight. In other news, I got past the big 200,000 word marker! That’s a lot of edits! Maybe not if you’re a pro editor, but if you’re a slow editor like me, that’s a lot for two months, especially on top of my own book~

Hi! I'm curious: are there any alternatives to critiquematch you've found? I joined about a month ago and love it, but they recently implemented a new paid subscription model

I discovered beta reading on CritiqueMatch dot com and I swapped beta reading with other noobs. Learned a lot, taught some too, will trade chapters when I get to that point again.
