Hi, All -
I just thought I might throw this out there: I finished my Nanowrimo novel, am in the process of tweaking it, but I am finally too close to it to look at it objectively for problems anymore.
So, I am asking: is there anyone who wouldn't mind reading what I have written, and critiquing me on it?

Hi, Suki! Is this the raw first draft, untouched since Nov. 30, or have you worked on it since November? If it's been worked on, then yes, I'd be willing to look it over. It might take me a while, though, because I'm working on OOTB stories right now, and I'll be deep into editor mode, starting Feb. 1. Speaking of editor mode, I owe you a letter, now that I've given your story a deeper read than the initial quick skim-through. So if you can stand a bit of suspense, yes, I'd love to read your NaNo novel.

It's been touched quite a few times since then. :-) Hope is one of the touchers, but she being as busy as she is hasn't been able to do more than Chapters 1 & 2. And I need more. :-) She says she can do more in the spring, but I would twitch myself to death long before that. In fact, I have had several people do chapters 1 & 2 - I need somebody looking further on in my story! I've been doing a fair amount of tweaking on my own (for instance, due to poking around on the Verla Kay boards I just axed 2 whole chapters from my present draft as 'unnecessary'), but I need fresh eyes!
