Hi!

It's very late and I doubt anyone's around, but I just finished another essay and am looking for beta readers. Any takers?

If no one is around tonight, I'll ask again tomorrow.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm in.

I can't even.

Hey Kristin, I'm still up (I don't leave the mountain time zone until tomorrow). I could give some quick feedback tonight, then more measured feedback late tomorrow night.

It's still super fresh and new--I just finished it, so I've barely even looked it over. All I really want right now is some general feedback (I may change my mind after a reread tomorrow and request more specific).

Thank you both! Insent in a sec...

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Send, ma'am, but I won't get to it until tomorrow. Was baking.

Backflung, Kristin. That's great stuff to be capturing in your own voice.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Drabble: Upside Down (100 words, excluding title)

I have never been graceful. A stray comment about my awkwardness stung me, and that wound hasn't healed. I never go out to clubs, preferring the reptilian solitude of my book-lined cave.

But the music ....

Some have their boy-bands and puppyslash as guilty pleasures; mine is a silly retro band called the A-Teens -- bubblegum ABBA covers by generically pretty European teenagers. No serious-music cred here, no philosophical lyrics that demand attention, no complex rhythms or harmonies to distract from the sense of forward motion.

Upside down, dancin' on the ceiling ....

And my dragonish inner child chair-dances, unashamed.
