Not exactly sure how this works? I have a 4600 word soft sci-fi story. Looking for critiques or exchange of similar length sci-fi or fantasy. Or anyone that wants to look at the first 450?
thanks anyone ?

Happy to take a look at yours— mine is a bit longer, 7,300 words, but if you don’t have the bandwidth for it that’s okay.

@wahlquistj Awesome! Totally happy to exchange ? 7.3k is totally similar length
(I guess I should have clarified by 'similar' I just meant under 10k, and the truth is, I'm happy to even look at over 10k, its just I don't really write pieces that long, so I may not be the best at critiquing in that length range)

I don't have anything to exchange at the moment, but I'd be happy to give it a read if you want to PM it to me.
@bzelger Great, I will do, thank you!

@gideonpsmith I’d be happy to do the first 450 for you today. If you need more full critiques I can take the whole thing, but It’ll take me a bit longer.
