original fiction

[cornerofmadness]

Hey guys, I finished a short story, sort of a tester for a novel I'm starting, just to see how people react to the characters and the ideas. I'm fixing up a tense problem right now (I always mess up the present tense) but if anyone wants to read it (it's speculative fiction, supernatural I guess) let me know. It's under 1,700 words which for me is a major rarity. It also means its in a very marketable word count range (go me). If I have your email I'll just mail it along. If i don't, just leave it for me. I'll screen the comments. Thanks

I'd like to read it. carlyinrome@gmail.com (mailto:carlyinrome@gmail.com?subject=Yay, Short Story!) And thanks for the offer to beta, but since it's so close to deadline now -- I would have gotten on earlier, but I had the Migraine of Doom -- and I don't want to rush you . . . it's appreciated, but I'd have guilt. I'd love to read your story, though.
