Hi guys. I'm looking for a reader or two who can look at my first 4 chapters (~10,000 words). Not looking for line-level edits or anything, just the basic, "I would keep reading" or not. I'm open to a swap.

Which project? The one off to the agent or the new one (book three I think)?

I am probably too overbooked with various crit responsibilities, but I'm definitely window shopping your offer.

Off to the agent book. I guess I should give more details.

Adult fantasy that takes place in a non-Western setting and has some mystery mixed in.

I'm going to let the fantasy writer/readers offer.

Circle back round to me at any point you like! I know how it can feel ... how the nerves can jitter ... But I'm sure you'll have much interest. Consider me on call if you need! Just shoot me a DM.

That I can do, so I'm waving the little flag that says "I'd Like To Help" :)

What's your book about? I might be interested.

Hey guys! Thanks for the volunteers. I think for right now I'm okay with the feedback I have. I wanted to get some eyes on it before I sent it to an agent. Depending on his response, I may or may not decide I need feedback, but I will let you guys know if I need anything else. Thanks! Love this place.
