Seconded that this won't always work. Soliciting concrit doesn't magically make people who are able to give it appear. And frankly as someone who's been in fandom a long time, anyone who IS capable of giving good concrit should be justifiably cautious even when writers claim they want it. I've personally experienced far too many writers who insisted they wanted a thorough beta job with brutal honesty... but they don't actually expect to get it, and they're very unpleasantly surprised when they do.

Now, I'm not undiplomatic. I do the praise/concrit/praise sandwich, and I'm never nasty because it's not about tearing someone down. But I've had "I swear, give it to me straight and rip this fic to shreds" adult authors go apeshit over me pointing out a small factual error that wasn't even about their writing/writing style. I no longer offer concrit to people I don't know well, who aren't going to lose their shit over something trivial.
