I have recently finished and edited my novel and now I need outside opinions as i head down the road towards publishing. It's 152 pages long, 75,862 words. If you could highlight any changes you make in red (or whatever color suits your fancy) that would be helpful, as otherwise I'll never find any corrections or notes you put in. Grammar & structure stuff should be fairly solid by now and easy to fix. Mostly I just need to know what you think of the story itself, questions or doubts you have in the plot elements & characters, etc. Just whatever you feel like telling me.

In return, I'll review your story/novel of roughly equal length or less, critiquing any aspect of it you would like. I do have some limits, though- I just don't get poetry, and I can't bring myself to do romance or vampires. I also won't crique anything overly dark, gory, horror, too full of language and other content, or, well, let's say subjects your average high school english teacher would be mortified if she recieved. I'll try fanfic, but I can't guarantee how helpful my critique will be if I don't know the subject. Fantasy and medieval is probably my speciality, but I'll try anything else not listed above.

I'll try to do your review within a few days/a week, depending on the length of the document and my homework load at the time. If (and a big if) I get flooded with requests, it might take me longer.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, let me know! Hopefully you can open the attachment, if not I'll send it from a different word processor. I hope you enjoy!
