Call for Pre-Readers: Somber Heart · 8:40pm Dec 27th, 2013
Hello everyone. I've begun writing the first chapter of Somber Heart in earnest. As of writing this blog post, I have about 1,200 of I imagine about 5000-6000 words written. I want pre-readers and idea people for some first impressions and error checking. Please understand that the nature of the work will mean heavy spoilers and that you will probably read snippets and pieces of the first chapter rather than a coherent story. If you want to read the whole first chapter in one go with all of the bugs worked out, please do not apply to be a pre-reader. For those who are interested, just comment on this blog post and I will PM you when I have something ready to be pre-read. I'm gonna try to get it at least mostly completed before I message you so I don't completely ruin the story for you.
If for some reason you'd like to keep up with the story as it evolves step-by-step, I can arrange for you to read it as I revise and write it.
As a final note, I write in a somewhat sporadic fashion. I usually write the middle leading up to the climax first before I write the beginning, so keep that in mind.
I may be able to help you out. What exactly are you looking for?

I'm looking mainly for someone to read what I have at random points and say, 'This sounds weird' or 'Your wording here is confusing' or 'This makes the hero sound like an asshole.' I want to know where the story has hiccups so I can iron them out. I'm more concerned with a good story than a clean read.

I can help with that.

Excellent, you're on my list!
In a good way.
