Noticing Newbies

Hi, my name is June and I thought it would good to join a community for writers. I wasn't sure where to go and this site was recommended on a blog. Since I still consider myself to be a beginner, I wanted all the help I could get. I'm halfway through writing my novel's third draft and I'm kind of second-guessing how I started it at this point. It was originally a stand-alone novel but ended up being bigger than that, so the mission I gave my character may be too... special for the first book. (If that makes sense.) Anyways, I can't wait to see what others have written and hope to become a beta reader so I can learn as I go. My focus remains on the genre fantasy. Whether it's urban fantasy, romantic fantasy, etc. I read it all except horror. I like mysteries and dramas as well but it's been a while since I read something like that without something paranormal, well, besides Pride and Prejudice variations.

I hope to improve my writing skills and to finally reach my goal. As for being a beta reader, I haven't done that before but am willing to do my best. I am glad I've found this site and am looking forward to the upcoming months. Thank you!
