I'm looking for a beta reader for a 54,000 word young adult contemporary romance/coming of age craptastic novel.

Yes, I refer to my work as craptastic.

It's already been edited and polished up- so I'm really just looking for someone to read and make sure I'm coherent, all my story arcs are wrapped up, everything flows nicely and what not (okay and double check all the grammer/syntax for me). I don't mind brutal honesty...

I have the first 500 words or so up in SYW. You can read it here (hthttp://absolutewrite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=179645)

Here is a quick overview (from my blog-scroll just a little) (http://babiespeepingout.blogspot.com/p/after-seven.html)

I can return the favor- I love to read pretty much anything I can get my hands on...but uhmm...not so good at anything line by line. :D

I've never beta'd before, but, I would be interested in doing so. I read the overview on your blog and I liked the idea. I also write YA realistic fiction. I am a college senior who has taken a lot of creative writing classes so I know how to critique. If interested feel free to contact me at rawhit01@moreheadstate.edu
