I'm just starting to rewrite a novel. I had 37K but I wasn't happy with it. A working blurb is available if you'd like to know what it is about. Mostly, I need someone who can help me along the way, also someone with an AIM account for easy chatting.

Thanks!

ETA: Adding that I would like to work on my characters the most, seeing that I was going down a stereotypical path with them in the first unfinished draft. Basically, it's a multiple perspective novel with four viewpoint characters, two boys and two girls. It's called The Love Square. I'd also like feedback on what works and what doesn't, what I can do to make it sound better. I might have a problem with unnecessary dialogue/narration so helping to point out which parts to cut out would be great too. I think show vs. is an issue, too. Maybe it's not but I feel like it is. I think that's pretty much what I want to work on.
