Wanted: Beta reader

[Vermilion]

Hello. I'm losing confidence slightly in my story, in that I am so involved I can't tell if I'm telling the story or just waffling on.

Anybody here bored with time on their hands who wouldn't mind a quick glance through a half-finished story. No heavy editing/proofing required - just comments on the story progression, characters etc...

ps- pref someone who likes my style of writing... I need encouraging criticism at this stage. I'll hand it to Jenny to brutalise when I've finished it!

you know you are, bitch, but I love ya anyway

Seriously - you can have a look see, but only if you promise to be positive in your criticism* or, if it's really bad, pretend you never received it...

*ie- OK, you have major problems with this bit, that bit and this last bit, but I loved the way you did such and such and so and so is a really good character... but you might need to think about such and such...

Send it V. I promise to be objective and nice.

My thing with reviews is and has always been -
Story/plot, character development and realism.

That's it.
