@anne_the_noob14 Sure! Give me a link and I’ll give it a read. I likely won’t be able to get to it tonight – I’m going to be on clinical rotations from 1 – 9 EST and I’ve little idea what to expect from the day. But send the link to your stuff, and if you don’t hear anything back from me, tag me tonight or tomorrow and bugger me until I get back to you. I’m a very forgetful person, so I won’t be bothered if you remind me to do something.
If you wouldn’t mind – you and all the other lovely people here – I have a story that could use some beta-reading. I say story, but it’s about 27k words, so more like a novella, which will eventually become a part of a novel. Part of the reason I’m such an Encyclopedia Edward right now is because I just wrote a scene in which a character received these same kinds of treatments for various wounds AND is fighting off an infection throughout the story, but I could use help looking at the story as a whole and seeing if it’s adequately weaving themes and motifs in and out; if the characters are compelling and interesting; if the action is followable; and if the ending is even remotely satisfying. 😛 Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll drop the link in my next post.
Anyways, pop the link to your story and I’ll give it a read. You and everyone here @naiya-dyani, @urwen-starial, @deeprun
