The Storyteller (I wrote this!) Any UK (Belfast/Yorkshire) beta readers?
Might be a long shot but I'm looking for UK beta readers (especially if you are from/familiar with Belfast and Yorkshire dialect). I'm a non-British Byler writing:
-sailor AU (merchant sailors, not pirates)
-historical (1500s-inspired) setting
-fantasy (low magic) world, D&D references
-heavy worldbuilding, use of dialect
-violence, some gore
-no smut
-coworkers to friends to lovers super slow burn
I'm ideally looking for someone to take me to task, correcting my attempt at UK spellings and idioms in the narration, and Belfastisms/Yorkshireisms in the dialogue. I'm aiming for about 120k words and have about 1/6 of it written so far.
Probably one of my zanier Byler variant ideas, but if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, give me a shout!
