Here's the problem, my friends. Six consecutive quarters of HM / SHM. 
One more pro sale puts me out of the competition. 
Can my Q4 sci fi tale be got into adequate shape to make the final? Draft is now ready.
If you think you can help, please PM me. I sometimes have more clarity of vision when critiquing than when writing and will be happy to do what I can by way of return.

I should perhaps have clarified that the above post is not addressed only to previous winners or finalists.
In previous exchanges I have benefited from advice from a wide range of people and I hope to continue to do so.

I need a couple of weeks before I'll be sane enough to do any critiquing, but I'll be willing to exchange stories with you at that point.
If you are in difficulties with a book, try the element of surprise: attack it at an hour when it isn't expecting it. ~ H.G. Wells
If a person offend you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick. ~ Mark Twain

Count me in too but I am also a couple of weeks from having my piece ready for review.
I've sent you a PM - Ishmael.
Excellent. I'll be ready when you are.

You can send your story whenever you feel it's ready.
You may decide you already have enough viewpoints at this point, but if not, I'd be happy to be a reader as well.
I have a Q4 ready for review as well to exchange (science fiction), but it clocks in at 12K (by the unofficial Microsoft word count).
I would be happy to give comments on yours even if you don't have time for further exchange. I recall reading one of your published stories on the web and quite enjoyed it.

Apologies to others who may have tried to contact me. I hadn't realised my inbox was full. It should be all right now.
