What I can offer you:

- I've written professionally for a couple newspapers and am currently employed full time as a copy editor for medical scripts
- I'm willing to read any genre you can throw at me (I've read everything from hard sci-fi to romance to S&M erotica to non-fiction articles)
- Week turnaround at the longest

What I want in return:

- Thorough beta read. Give me what you got. My skin is thick
- Week turnaround at the longest
- Honesty

The story I'd send you:

- Is complete
- Has been edited by me
- Has been submitted to a magazine for publication but was rejected (I'm trying to figure out why/what the weakness is)
- Is 5,900 words long
- Is science fiction blended with fantasy
- Contains minor foul language and some violence, but that's all



If interested, please just reply in this thread. I'd prefer to read something from you that is about the same length as what I'd send you (so around 6,000 words), though slightly longer and much shorter are both acceptable (as are multiple short-short pieces). If the arrangement seems to work out, maybe we can swap regularly and be writing partners ^_^

I have a 7k word romance (sadly no sex and no violence) for swap. PM if you're interested.
