Alright, so I've been thinking (these words should flash like a warning sign) and I believe it's time to test my edited manuscript on some of my readers. I want to know if it's done--or if it needs to improve. So with that, I'd like to ask you; would you like to help me?
You may sign yourself up in the comments or ask questions about this "business" as well.
Really, all I'm looking for is a group of nice writers who won't hold back on me--a writing critique group. I want to share my writing and, help is grow. I need to weed out all the rough patches and then gently spray it with a power hose.
Would you like to help me do this?
If so, I very much encourage you to comment. I think I'm going to limit my number of editorial readers to five--though, I'm sure not a lot of you will be interested in doing this, which is understandable, so I may not have to worry about that.
Some Guidelines To Consider:
+ You must be thirteen years or older (unless you can persuade me you are mature enough to read my material).
+ You must have an email account by which I can contact you, so that I can share my writing with you (it would be preferable if you had gmail, so I could just share with you in google docs).
+ You must be willing to help me untangle complicated plot points, exploit character actions, and give me advice on what you think would make my story better.
I believe that's all for now. I can't wait to hear from you. :)
Note: I am now no longer accepting participants. Sorry. :}

Ugh. I'm so sad I missed it. Oh well, I'll buy it when it gets published:)
ReplyDeleteYou should start a writers support group or something. A place where people could trade their works and get insight. I would do it myself but I don't know anyone who writes and I don't have a way to get the word out :\
