After a year of dealing with the grief, she is finally yearning to move on, only to discover that her brother is still alive but not well. With four strangers who had their lives torn apart the way she did, Aria sets out to find her brother. The search takes her across the world- from the marshes of Bangladesh to teeming Beijing, war-torn Dimrael to beatific Greece. But as she inches closer to her brother, she is pulled deeper into an international conspiracy that took her brother away from her and is now set upon changing the world through gruesome war. <br /><br><br />About Me: I am a student from India and have been writing for years. Looking mostly for a beta reader.

...This looks like an interesting idea! If scary. :)<br /><br />Name: Siscia Miles<br />Email: SisciaM@gmail.com<br />Looking for: Either! :)<br /><br /><b>Things to note about writing:</b><br /><i>I like to dabble in the less conventional thought<br />processes and, of course, explore many different<br />styles of writing on a whim. Sometimes I explore less<br />conventional (Non-M/F) romances, as well.<br /><br />It's a rule of mine that I try to avoid overused words,<br />such as 'said'. This makes it very difficult to read to<br />other people through voice, but there is a reason for<br />it: I've been told (And really, I know!) my stories<br />aren't very skim-friendly. Skip a sentence and you<br />may have already missed something. Reducing the<br />usage of overused words also reduces the need to<br />skim, in my opinion.</i><br /><br /><b>Things to note about editing:</b><br /><i>I try not to be too critical (Though I can be!), so it<br />really depends on what you're wanting me to look<br />for. Knowing your goals will help me throw critique<br />your way.<br /><br />Since I tend to re-read everything at least a couple<br />of times before giving opinions (The first time to<br />know what it says, and the second to really dig into<br />the mechanics of how everything works together, or<br />doesn't), there isn't too much I can't find. Especially<br />since I let things turn around in my mind. If it isn't<br />immediate, it'll probably come to me!</i><br /><br /><b>Current WIP #1:</b><br />Currently: 7.5K words<br /><i>Alissa: Discovering the Art</i> (Fantasy) is a<br />story about a young woman separated from her<br />parents by their choice during chaotic times,<br />proclaimed a means of keeping her safe.<br /><br />However, without work or anything to her name<br />outside a crush likely to lead nowhere, her reliance<br />on the people in town gets the best of her and<br />begins to diminish her confidence.<br /><br />A week has passed when she's offered a job and a<br />place to stay by someone she isn't entirely sure she<br />can trust. However, she finds herself convinced that<br /><i>anything</i> would be better than relying on<br />other people to survive.<br /><br />This decision costs her more than she's prepared to<br />surrender, potentially including her sanity, though<br />she quickly finds she has little choice in the matter.<br />Perhaps.<br /><br /><b>Current WIP #2:</b><br />Currently: 2K words<br /><i>Double Life: Erin's Vision</i> (Fiction) portrays a<br />young, wildly successful indie author faced with the<br />greatest enemy anyone might have to face. Their<br />own paranoia after fame.<br /><br />Pressure mounted for months after the release of<br />the ninth book of the best-selling series Erin wrote,<br />which concluded with a cliffhanger - something Erin<br />had never done. This created a large question<br />around what may or may not happen with the tenth.<br /><br />A week ago, the release of the tenth book was<br />advertised, and tonight was the night. The past week <br />couldn't have been better in the form of sales, but<br />the mountain of sales and publicity were all signs of<br />people either rooting, or expecting Erin to mess up.<br /><br />The pressure was suffocating the mind of Erin, who<br />decided to go out for the first time in nearly eight<br />years. After, of course, covering a majority of the<br />potential threats that might occur from such a<br />decision. Unfortunately, Erin missed one.<br /><br /><b>Current WIP #3:</b><br />Currently: 67.5K words<br /><i>Selena: Lady Fate's Game</i> (Sci-Fantasy(?))<br />focuses on Selena Renli, a young girl with trust<br />issues, an intriguing secret and an ability to get out<br />of just about any line of questioning without a<br />complete lie.<br /><br />Same-age prodigy Trenton Viekane takes a sudden<br />interest in Selena and unravels a secret about her<br />during a would-be date gone horribly wrong.<br /><br />Selena and Trenton try to unravel the other's<br />hidden secrets in a seemingly never-ending game of<br />mind versus mind. Eventually, she goes too far,<br />forcing Trenton to choose between his father's - and<br />his - company, and her.<br /><br />When she's backed into a corner and finds herself<br />with very few she can rely on and trust to get her out<br />of trouble, is <i>he</i> among them?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13591266967039136716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380793708805406109.post-32420874837913564362012-06-05T04:24:40.976-04:002012-06-05T04:24:40.976-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13591266967039136716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380793708805406109.post-16410353637201402982012-06-05T00:32:22.095-04:002012-06-05T00:32:22.095-04:00Generous gesture.

Email: sbowling@mosquitonet....<i>Name:</i> Sue Ann Bowling<br /><i>Email:</i> sbowling@mosquitonet.com<br /><i>Current WIP:</i> A science fiction trilogy based on various aspects of disputes between two human-settled planets and the Confederation which was designed to prevent such disputes. One of the two planets, Rakal, left the Confederation several years earlier and was immediately taken over by a parasitic species. The other, Horizon, is the main focus. A peculiarity in Confederation law allowed the Confederation to collect taxes due from Horizon in slaves. <br />The protagonist is Roi, slave-born and the unwilling leader of the Confederation, and the slaving was approved behind his back—but he is unable to get the votes to reverse it. The first book, working title <i>Rescue Operation</i>, deals with his efforts to reverse the slaving, though all he can manage to do is rescue some of those enslaved. The second, working title <i>Horizon War</i>, deals with Roi on Horizon. The third, working title <i>War’s End</i>, deals with the mess left after the war is nominally over. The first and second books end with open problems (a real cliff-hanger between the first and second) so they really should be read together.<br />Although nominally science fiction, the books are heavily focused on the characters and on not-so-subtle comments about society today. Bits of the first and (currently) the third book have been shared on Six Sentence Sunday, and can be accessed via the index on my blog, http://homecomingbook.wordpress.com Some of the background of the universe I write in is in a Friday series, <i>Jarn’s Journal,</i> on the same blog.<br /><i>What are you looking for?</i> I’m looking for a beta reader (though I’d be happy to have a critique partner.) Preferably someone who can at least tolerate science fiction! The work is in what I would call polished draft stage, and all three books are written except an epilogue on the last to tie up some loose ends.<br />As these are long books I don't expect immediate feedback on them.<br /><i>Some info about me:</i> I’ve spent most of my life as a scientific researcher in atmospheric science, so I have a good background in physics, astronomy and how planets work. My writing explores the societies that may result from particular circumstances of environment. I have two self-published books out, both award winners. <i>Homecoming</i> took second place in Science Fiction in the 2011 Reader Views contest; the sequel, <i>Tourist Trap,</i> won Best Fiction Book of 2012 in the same contest. Both deal with Roi as a child and adolescent. I’ve been figuring my stuff works for those roughly of high school age and up but is questionable for those of younger ages.Sue Ann Bowlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692320238497263942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380793708805406109.post-62622180054770745242012-06-04T12:25:37.587-04:002012-06-04T12:25:37.587-04:00Name: Esther Spurrill Jones

I want someone who focuses on the big picture instead of being nit-picky and pedantic. I want someone who understands that my writing style leans towards the literary and can be a bit slower-paced and more about growth, change, and development over a longer period, not so plot-centric as many modern books are. The most important things I want critiqued are character development, plot trajectory, and believability, not criticisms of my personal writing style. I'm fully well aware of the fact that parts of my personal voice are considered a bit old-fashioned or slower-paced nowadays. That doesn't make it wrong, just different.Carrie-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810154378449825641noreply@blogger.com
