I would love to swap a few 10k word chapters at a time.
I 've written a 50K horror novel.
A brief synopsis:
Henry Mozart, a normal, fourteen year old kid from Brooklyn without a care in the world, gets his perfect life turned upside down when two airplanes crashed into the Twin Towers, killing his father. Going to Afghanistan after graduating from high school to seek justice for his father’s death, and to protect America from terrorists, he finds himself in a battle where he gets his leg blown off by a terrorist’s grenade. Coming home disillusioned about his ability to make a difference in this world, he begins to drink heavily at a local bar, trying to forget ever going to war. But ironically, he gets bitten by an ancient vampire and gets dragged into another war where he battles against a secret cabal of Nazi vampires, and supervillains like Creepy Clown, Puzzle Master and Webcam Killer. The story is a reimagining of a Batman story.

I am looking for new material to BETA read. If you are interested in my offer please email me at Jumpj1952@hotmail.com. Please only send me the first three or four chapters. If I like it, I will ask for the entire story.
My blurb is below:
As a girl from the Elkridge Apartments Jordan Johnson had modest goals, enough money for food, a non-leaking roof over her head, and a chance to leave. She worked very hard over the past few years to achieve just that, a normal, stable life. Unfortunately for her it is all at risk of unraveling when an amateur podcaster weasels his way into her life convinced he is onto some great untold story involving one of Chicago’s most powerful families. Now in an attempt to quell the story and preserve the already cracking facade of normalcy she is plunged back into her old life, reconnecting with old friends who now hate each other, and facing realities of her past she isn’t too proud of.
