Beta needed. Prefer someone who has written sci-fi. I have actually queried this to a publisher and it was accepted. I turned them down when I discovered that they were a vanity press. Would love to be critiqued over the first six chapters and maybe the final one. I also prefer someone who is well known by the veterans here on AW. I have never betaed before, so not for sure that I could give a good critique in a swap.

May consider the full manuscript if beta and I click

Sci-fi is a broad genre. It would be helpful if you were more specific about the type of sci-fi (e.g. military SF, space opera, etc.).

Not for sure. Space opera? It is unique but done in similar fashion as Star Wars, Mass Effect, Firefly, etc. It is not military.

You had me at Firefly... Star Wars and Mass Effect are both pluses.

I'll PM you my E-Mail account, feel free to fire over the first chapter.

Thank you for the help, MHarvey. The things you pointed out to me helped me to see other areas that I needed to retool as well. You are awesome.

No problem at all. Best of luck with this project.
