Patricia Wrede has yet another excellent post, this one on Beta Reader Do’s and Don’ts. Basically, if you're going to beta-read for somebody, this is what you should already have internalized. And the next time I'm looking for beta readers, I'm going to point people here.

She's doing great, getting around a little better and doing more for herself every day. And I'm sleeping in my own bed and getting a shower most every morning, which is doing worlds for my outlook.
