I haven't beta-ed for you before, Deb, but I'd be happy to, if you'd like. Profile addy is good.
Why couldn't you be dealing drugs like normal people?

I could also use a beta reader or two, ideally someone who hasn't read the wip before--I spent the afternoon tweaking my first chapter again, and I want a fresh set of eyes to have a look at it.

I'd be happy to look at it, Susan.

What is even happening?
As is very often when I write nowadays, am wishing I hadn't been quite so honest.Well, yeah, because this is raw:
It’s just, totally obvious.I’m just, like nothing? Mom says it’ll get better one day, but she’s my mom, what would she say? That she got pregnant with a nobody? Especially after almost dying over it? I think not.She has to at least fake like we’re something, or her life’s a big waste.I mean "raw" as high compliment, but I'm raw myself, just from reading it.
Susan, I can't read it tonight, but I can try for tomorrow morning (my morning) if you want to send it. Gmail is good. I think we've exchanged emails, when I've used that address.
Sail, the end of yours gave me goosebumps. Connie, your drabble would have given me goose bumps, but then you disclaimered yourself and made me laugh. We know it's not you, you goober (or is it...)

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I am all about the beta reading, so, insending to those who requested.
connie, for some reason, I found that heartbreaking.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'll take a look at it, Susan, if you need any more sets of eyes. What sort of stuff do you want feedback on?

Insent, Hil, with details about feedback desired.
Cindy, I'd love to send it to you, too, but I don't think I have your gmail. Should I just use your profile addy?

I'm feeling oddly (oddly, sheesh) sane today and decided for a lark to distance myself from my more homicidal urges. I'm sure I'll be back to normal in a couple of days.
