Hey!
Many of you old timers know I talk a ton of bullshit. Now my bullshit is getting turned into a novel or something similar.
Nowhere near done yet, nowhere near great yet. It's fantasy.
Would any of ye people be interested in maybe looking at some chapters soon?
I would prefer if you were regular posters/known around here. Not because I have an issue with fresh meat, but I would hate if some pantifa plants tried messing with my thing.
(Mods, delete if inappropriate post.)

Sure, I can proofread a few chapters if you like. No experience of narrative writing but plenty of experience reading fiction and proofing docs for errors. Plus, I like to think I can occasionally pull together a good turn of phrase, so hopefully that translates into a decent sense of which writing is more engaging than the others.
Careful what you wish for though. I imagine having a team of would-be editors all individually critiquing/error-correcting the same piece of text would be an actual nightmare to process. Maybe chop it up into a number of smaller samples handed out individually to only one or two at a time? That might help mitigate the inherent flakiness of internet volunteers a bit too. If you like one person's input a lot you can always ask real nicely if they'd do a second pass on the other chunks later.
