Betas for a short, poe-inspired story.

So, a long time ago, I wrote up a piece for a homage anthology to Edgar Allen Poe. It wasn't accepted, but I still feel like it may be one of the best short stories I've written. It's since been through several submissions, revisions, and a few edits. I still haven't had much luck placing it though.

So, I'm posting here hoping to find a few beta readers to look it over and tell me what it may be lacking or what needs to be touched up.

It's a short story (4,750 words), and I'm hoping I can get enough feedback to get to revising it by the end of the month.

So, if you're interested, post in here somewhere or drop me a message. Thanks all!

A dark, evil place.
I'd be happy to take a look at it if you'd like, Shaun.

Don't forget, we also have the Share Your Work section. It's password protected and specifically for critting, so you don't risk losing the first print rights by posting there.
