Beta reading anyone?

[S.T.]

I'm looking for feedback on my latest novel. It's already been run through a crit group, but most of the other members aren't really into stuff this weird. I don't consider it Bizarro, but it's strange enough that you might like it anyway.

It's a metaphysical coming-of-age story about a semi-immortal loser who gets sucked into secret war between militant nerds and the mutant shadow government. It's also a conspiracy novel with zombies, aliens, alternate realities and gods. It's weirder than it sounds.

I won't be offended if you don't like it, but any feedback good or bad will be greatly appreciated. Anyone interested?

sign up for the forum on wordplague.com and post some excerpts in the writers and artists board. we've got some writers and editors hanging around that might be able to give you some feedback.

[Chris]

I would be willing to read it, and try to give some helpful feed back. You can have a look at my profile to see what I normally read, and send me a message.

[S.T.]

Thanks. I'll do that.

I'm about a third of the way through this book now, and must say that it is very well written. Don't get the ideal that it is just another sloppy 100 page banger by some amature. This is actually much longer than I expected, and very cleanly written. Creative, engaging, and very well edited. The story took a moment to get going, but I have been sucked in right along with the characters. Slightly tamer than most bizarro, but it still is within the genre.
If you get the chance you might want to see if there are still some copies that he might be willing to send out.

[S.T.]

Thanks Chris. I'm glad you like it. The offer is still good for anyone who is interested.

[Mike]

Send it my way. I can read through and give you my thoughts on it.
