Hello all. I am relatively new to LN, though I have certainly surfed around, and it is nice to be able to review selected texts which I don't have in my own library.
I am a freelance and creative writer, and I suppose it may be said I am extensively published, although relatively unknown. As a general rule I don't post drafts, so you won't see much of that from me in here, although I do submit to online sites as well as traditional print.
What I am looking for, to make a long story short:alien: is a reader for a manuscript I intend to submit to the Vassar Miller prize this year. Most of the manuscript consists of my best published poetry--and what a fresh eye could do for me is:
a. make suggestions about poem order
b. offer minor edits and critique weak spots
Might any member with at least some experience in publishing poetry be willing to assist me with this? I hesitate to ask, but it doesn't hurt to at least ask.
To explain why I don't have writer friends I could pull on would take too long!:D
I could send the manuscript through public email or whatnot, and receive comments back through the same--thanks for considering.
