Hello everyone! I recently edited this post saying I found a CP and I didn't have time to partner up with anyone else at the time.
However, my work load is lightening, and I would really like to partner up with, preferably, two more! Please post or PM me if you're interested.
FEEDBACK WANTED:
I'm looking for all kinds of feedback across the board. I want overall comments on plot, pacing, characterization, sentence structure, everything, in both the broad spectrum and line by line edits. I really am looking for someone who is active/available to talk to frequently so we can discuss each other's novels, ask questions real time, and have really good conversation with each other.
I want someone who isn't afraid to give constructive criticism. I don't want anything sugar coating. I need someone who is going to tell it like it is, as I will be doing the same. I would also like to hear things you DO like, read your reactions as things happen, etc.
WHAT I LIKE TO READ:
I'll read for all age groups except middle grade. I don't read it often and therefore wouldn't be the best to critique your story. Fantasy and contemporary are my favorite, whether YA NA Adult. I like twisty plots and also the softer side of coming-of-age young adult novels. But, if you're interested, feel free to send me over a blurb of your novel and I'll be happy to consider it!
QUALIFICATIONS:
I would love to partner up with writers who are on the same page (no pun intended) as I am. Slightly more experienced is fine, but I would like to go through the journey of editing and publishing our debut novel together, and help each other get there, cheer each other on. I would like someone who has experience critiquing others' work, and by experience I simply mean you've done it for a good length of time and know the gist of how it works and are comfortable giving feedback and know what to look for.
I also want to partner with writers who have completed and edited their novel at least a couple of times on their own already. I don't want to be the one reading it all the way through before you do.
Please see below for my query letter of THE DREAM WALKER. It's a young adult urban fantasy complete at 116k. I'm open to all works that are ballpark the same length. If interested =, please message me, and we can exchange writing samples and see if we are a good match!
QUERY
Human minds are in desperate need of protection, and though seventeen-year-old Kaylieanna is the most feared Threat hunter in the country and the best person for the job, she suddenly finds that she too is being hunted.
Kaylieanna is a Dream Walker; a member of a supernatural race created thousands of years ago with the original purpose of watching over human minds while asleep. It wasn’t long before the evil Threats of her kind began to prey on the Dangered—the select group of humans whose minds are susceptible to being controlled—demanding a new purpose among the Dream Walker people. Kaylieanna has spent years training to defend the Dangered mind and quickly earned her fearless reputation. But when Threats begin to inexplicably use the human mind to destroy her, Kaylieanna’s stable, strong, and stubborn façade is shattered, and her world as she knows it falls apart. Threats infiltrate her home, corrupted humans are murdering hunters across the country, and her innocence is soon questioned by those she cares about most. Her resolve is tested even further upon meeting Luke—a newly discovered Dangered who is nothing short of irritating and makes her doubt her sanity on a daily basis. In time, the two form an unexpectedly strong relationship, and it is with his help that Kaylieanna hopes to figure out who is behind the attacks against her, the humans, and her people. However, it is she alone who must decide who can be trusted and whose side she is truly on.
