My 120,000-word novel 'The Upsetter Blog' is 20,000 words too long. If there's a ruthless beta out there who'd like to point out the flab on it, I'm game.
The novel follows a has-been writer who gets roped into blogging the tour of an up-and-coming rock band. He becomes fascinated with the band's lead singer, while also growing attracted to the kid's girlfriend. Meanwhile, he has to contend with the death of his father and the life of his disabled son back home.
Check out some of my work, either in the link below or on the SYW board. I'm a competent writer, and I've already edited this thing to death, so there shouldn't be too much little stuff. I just need to know where I'm drifting off-topic. Any help is appreciated!
