Great info, use them!
Author V C WillowUnpopular but factual take:
Sensitivity readers should always be used when you're writing about a group you don't belong to. If nothing else to weed out:
Unconscious bias
Stereotypes
Offensive slurs
Tropes
Factual inaccuracies
Racism/Sexism/homophobia/transphobia etc.
You're not being censored or cancelled, you're not being told you can only write characters who look like you. It's about creating richer, nuanced characters.
PJ "Vote Green" CoffeyHmm. Good blog. Me I'd put some # on it and tag the RPG boost group.
I've mostly written dry technical manuals but how do you charge? By the book? The project? The word?
I don't even know how to budget a sensitivity reader in for fundraising purposes unlike art, writing, design, editing and that's something I'd like to change.

The Gauntlet: Beta Readers
How and where to find a beta reader? While there are online communities where you can find free beta readers, it's not always easy to recruit people who will actually finish reading your manuscript and deliver feedback. A beta reader is not an editor or proofreader, but will offer a helpful reader perspective.

Wanneer Koot en Bie slachtoffer worden van de #sensitivityreaders dan weet ik het zeker, 1984 is werkelijkheid geworden.

Gill KingI have learned so much about history through novels. Their original writing allows us to step into the past - rather like reading original historic documents (and we're not going to change them, no matter how distasteful they are). 2/2
