Veronika Akbasheva | 3 comments Hey, everyone! I’m a beginner writer, and currently working on my writing portfolio, so I’m about to write different pieces in various genres.
I’d like to invite beta-readers to the created specifically for that purpose telegram channel https://t.me/+WlahWl7XV5U2N2Qy
You can also text me privately on telegram: @icylily or email me: veronika.akbasheva@mail.ru

This week I’m gonna write:
- personal essay about my underweight story
- short fiction story (in progress; around 1-2 k words; literary fiction)
- vignette (around 800 words)
- a few samples from my poetry collection (on love)
I’m gonna post them on the tg channel this Saturday, so I’m really hopeful that you can help me with polishing my works!
I’m not sure yet in what genre each piece is gonna be, but most likely literary fiction. I’m gonna raise philosophical questions, implementing beacon of hope trope and sentimental tone (sad but hopeful in the end)

Content warnings:
- beauty standards
- physical imperfections
- animals killing animals

Timeline:
- If it’s possible I’d like to receive feedback by October 1

What I expect from beta-readers:
- English is not my native language, so if for you it is, I’d love to hear your opinion on possible mistakes
- advice on pace and style. If it sounds too artificial and boring
- basically any opinion is welcome and needed
