Well, there's about three weeks left until the end of the quarter, and I've finally got my story in a place where I'm willing to swap for crits. It's currently sitting at 5700 words. If you're interested in a trade, feel free to PM me.

We're into Q2 at this point, and I don't have anything to swap quite at the moment, but I'll be willing to trade with you once the piece I'm working on has a passable draft. It'll probably be at least a few weeks before I'm ready on my end, but if I have time I'll e-mail you to ask for your half of the trade earlier. (Thanks for the PM, by the way. wotf007 )

I've posted this elsewhere but I'll reiterate - I'm always open to critiques for forumites. Some have even said my feedback is helpful. Smile

I would suggest you finish the story first and then get critiques on either the whole or whatever beginning section you'd like so as to not get over influenced by your readers' feedback and in case your ending or middle changes your beginning.

After your done though, I'll gladly critique it.
