Beta Readers Group

One of a writer’s greatest challenges is getting honest and constructive feedback, especially for a completed and edited work that you are not sure is ready to submit to a publisher. This is when the beta reader comes into the picture. The beta reader reads the finished book and gives the author an overall critique, addressing such questions as: does the story flow, are there inconsistencies or repetitions, is it engaging and believable, are the characters compelling? A beta reader doesn't need to be a writer herself or a specialist in the genre. The main qualification is a passion for good literature and a commitment to providing serious, but loving advice. 

The LioL team would like to help out our writers by organizing a group of beta readers. If you are interested, either as a reader or a writer, email to .

Basel: A Cultural Experience
The first book available in English about Basel and its culture

By Shirley L. Kearney, editor

Member of AWC Basel and featured in Beyond Borders: Portraits of American Women around The World

272 pages, with 90 color photos, 29 color illustrations, 101 b/w photos, 90 b/w illustrations.
Hardcover, thread sewing, with bookmark
ISBN 3-908142-23-7

This book is a unique perspective of Basel - its waters, history, people, churches, architecture, traditions, legends, and more - as portrayed by several Americans and Swiss, all of whom have experienced a special relationship with the city. An easy-to-read, non-academic text, based on the 1986 publication, corroborated by Basel experts in the museum, art history and cultural environments; personalized with historical images, photos and original artwork. Here is Basel as it has never been seen before, as it was yesterday and is today, with the people and forces that have influenced its development.
Join us on a short journey through its history and traditions as we go behind doors and windows, opening your eyes and revealing an unknown and fascinating picture of Basel. This book will make us all members of the FCB - the FAN CLUB of BASEL.

For non-English speakers, a bonus is offered; the opportunity to improve your knowledge of English, while learning about Basel in a new light.
