Christine Kuehn Kelly said… - Whoops, never mind the "either of 2 books"--that was someone else. ;-) So send just one (or maybe you have more, per your profile?)

Hi,
Sorry, didn't see this comment.
Sure, let's swap. You can send either of your books....You have my email. I'll send you my 1st three, too. I'm not looking for copy editing (other than glaring mistakes)--am hoping for comments about flow/pacing, structure, characterization, plot problems and anything else that jumps out at you. Thorough is good!

Priya Mae said… Great! My email address is priya.chakravarti@mail.goucher.edu, so if you want to email me the first few chapters and let me know what kind of critique you want, that would be great. I am not harsh, but tend to be pretty thorough, so if this isn't what you're looking for, let me know. Talk to you soon!

- Hi Leah, I have a contemporary YA novel completed and am working on the revisions now, but I've critiqued a number of other people's work and can do anything from just analyzing plot and characterization to a hard line-by-line edit. I also write everything, and have written paranormal romance in the past so I would love to help you out if you are still looking for a CP.
