Debate Debate Debate

To ask for volunteers to read my sci fi as I go through its last pass, or not to ask for volunteers to read through my sci fi as I go through its last pass.

If I asked for volunteers, would anyone even volunteer?

I am hugely chicken re: sharing my work, especially something so different than what I used to write.

Will debate this with myself further, but am curious if anyone would, um, you know, volunteer?

Hmmm.

I have thought about using one of those critique places out there (like Absolutewrite, but I haven't enough posts because I prefer to lurk, you know), but I don't want just ANYone to have a crack at smacking my words about, you know?

Goal is to have it turned into This Unnamed Publisher I am Targeting by November 1 though I am crap at keeping deadlines. But that is the one I have (before Nano which I will do this year because my Fort Worth Area peeps are awesome and we are already chattering about it).

Hmmm.

Well time to go back to work so I will ponder this further.

And look, another post from me! That is two last week and one this week, so far! What is this madness?

I'm not usually a sci fi fan, so I don't know if I'd enjoy the novel. It's rare one comes along that interests me enough to pick it up. Maybe this is a good thing because then it would keep me objective to the writing? If I get into the novel, that's the highest form of praise you could get from me because I don't read anything I don't like. Anyway, my point is if you need an objective volunteer, I wouldn't turn down the offer. :)

I think I have chickened out, at least for now. LOL!!! You are awesome though!
