I've been looking at a chapter I want to submit tonight. (I'm 2 days past my own personal deadline.)

Anyway, I have a couple introduction scenes that I want to try to condense, but I don't know how and keep the gist of the thing. It's been edited, I just don't like it the more I read it -- these 'hello's' anyway.

Is there anyone around this evening who can look at these bits for me or even maybe with me in google docs and help condense them? It's 3 Word pages total.

It was the first ever fiction anything I'd ever written, so, well, you know how bad it must be.:rolleyes: (Not to scare you off!)

Thanks.

So embarrassing ...

to ask for help, then have to run out. So glad all y'all have lives and most were doing fun Saturday night activities instead of vegging here with me.

So, think I fumbled through it on my own.

Timezones strike again, or I would have offered. I was asleep when your appeal went forth.
 
I know luv ...

You ever just want to be done with something? Probably would have been best to wait one more day in order to have the help, and then also take a last proofread, because when you start toying with your copy, funny things start happening and get overlooked.

Man. This submitting crap is nerve wracking for the insecure! Insecure perfectionists with a competitive streak and minor ability should never, ever submit creative work to free submit web-sites. It's killer.

Well, it will kill me or cure me, don't know which yet.:(

Try publishers - they take weeks and then ...
 
Publishers? What are those? I can't even get fickle free readers to read it and like it! :rolleyes:

Sure, kick me to the curb like an empty can of Coke, make me feel hollow. Appreciate that. Just kidding, of course.
