Seeking help

Writing
I feel like I've been waiting for something bad to happen to me. So much so that I was talking to Donna about engineering a social accident for myself by deliberately provoking people. Of course such an overt display will generally accomplish nothing. Perhaps I should concentrate instead, on my own work.

So I'm looking for people to read and comment on my writing. I'll probably send one story out every two weeks. It'll be somewhere between 3,000 and 8,000 words. You'd be proof readers, and I'm looking for genuine critiques of the material so I can incorporate your feedback and send out the story to markets.

If you're interested, please write me an e-mail, or leave me a comment. I'd be very grateful for your help and will repay in any way that I can to help you with your own projects. Please only reply if you do have the time to read a story and write me a short email telling me what you thought about it, what worked, and what didn't. You don't have to do a full line by line critique or anything, just a short note will be enough for me.

Thanks!

I will read anything you write, even though you could not follow through on your IC promise. :(

Actually I don't think I have contact information for you. If you can email me from my info page, I'd appreciate it!

This is the kind of thing that I'd have time for sometimes and wouldn't others.... If you're okay with that, I'd be on board for doing this, but if you want consistency, I totally understand and would bow out.
