Okay, this is a more flexible version of the three sentence critique game. Except it's not a game.
Basic rules.
60 word limit, but any number of sentences. If you want to have 60 one word sentences, go right ahead, just don't expect many takers.
My reason for this is as follows: if your style is short(ish) sentences, then it makes no sense to start with three long-winded sentences then switch to your shorter ones. Or else you might have a short, snappy action scene at the start. Or you might want a choppy start. Who knows, perhaps someone will like it.
Please, please, tell us what genre it is.
There are many people who might never go near your shelf in the bookshop. Don't expect them to pick up your book.
Critique level request
1 = yes or no
2 = yes or no, with reason
3 = yes or no, with reason and/or one suggestion.
Critters are allowed to ignore the request level at their discretion. They're REQUESTS.
Critters: please don't go overboard with the suggestions. If you think your suggestion is too long then point the submitter at SYW.
Revised submissions
If you want to do this, give them version numbers.
If you're on version 300, I'd give up.
Please don't pester critters for re-evaluations.
Other
Please abide by the spirit of the rules where not explicitly stated.
