Allyson, I'd be happy to. You can shoot it to my profile addy if you're interested.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Herding cats for fun
I will happily read anything Allyson writes.
Also, when I start up my own cable channel and sign Firefly as my star attraction, I plan to beg Allyson on bended knee to herd writers and TV executives for me.
(I plan to tempt her with a fabulous salary)

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I'd love to if you need one more. Profile addy is good.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I'd be happy to read it, Allyson. Profile addy's good.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Allyson, it sounds as if you have a wealth of betas, but if you want yet another opinion, feel free to send to my profile addy.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Allyson, if you don't mind a suggestion? Get a nice broad spectrum of readers; that way, if you find synchronicities of opinion (three of seven readers say, hmmm, that fourth paragraph made me blink and have to go back), they become something you should probably look at.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Okey! Will be sending, shortly. And thank you. This is much appreciated, more than I can express, really.

Heh. Actually, expression is easy; just include a big 'thank-you to my beta readers' on the acknowledgments page when the book comes out.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm always up for delivering a good thrashing, if you want to enlarge your spectrum. I might not get to it until I get back from New York, though.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.
Count me in too! Profile addy is good.
