I know I was here not that long ago looking for betas. This is what I get when I work on two novels at once. ^_^ As my other novel rides the query-go-round, I'm trying to prepare my next manuscript to go out on submission. It beats checking my e-mail every five seconds.
The novel is 67,000 words, and focuses on a deaf teen named April who's left home in order to seek a career in a magical sport called diball. Along the way, she deals with vanished players, a difficult game partner, and a possible murder. There is a romantic subplot, but no love triangle.
The query is here:

The first five pages are here:

The novel has been through two betas and several revisions already. I'm looking for someone who's beta-read before and is willing to give blunt feedback. I'm happy to exchange manuscripts (seriously, I'm at home with a baby and need reading material -- exchange with me!) I'm willing to read a pretty wide range of stuff, although if your genre is something I feel totally inexperienced in, you're probably better off looking elsewhere.
Please PM me if you're interested.
