Robinski Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Apologies for being horribly behind on my crits. I will not post my sub up this week until I am at least caught up with last!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandamon Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 Putting my name in for next week again, unless someone wants to boot me out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinski Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Me too, please. Unless there are others who are due a shot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthweaver Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 If my power holds out during the 2-day ice storm we're getting, I'd also like to submit on Monday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandamon Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Oof--does anyone mind a lot if my submission for next week is about 5700 words? It finishes up this section, and I'd rather get the whole arc out so there's less WRS in the comments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silk Posted April 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Looks like we have one slot left with @Truthweaver, @Mandamon, @kais, and @Robinski submitting tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic Fox Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 It's proving difficult to move house, work, and keep writing. I'll throw my name in for next Monday, and see if I can forge some time to feedback this week. If there's a full house and it's still looking unlikely I'll get time, then I'll pull out. But that won't happen - go forth with confidence in deadline pressure! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarkinTyvell Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) So, I've been reading through numerous threads here on the Shard, doing a deep dive on all things Cosmere for the last few weeks and stumbled on this gem today. I have a novel I've been working on for what feels like forever and has just been awful for me in terms of editing and I'm wondering if joining in on this process wouldn't help get me out of my funk. The items I'd submit would be what I have already edited and cleaned up, within the set word count of course, which would put pressure on me to finish editing the rest of the manuscript. Long story short, was hoping I could throw my name in to put in a submission this coming Monday.

kais Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Hi @LarkinTyvell. Welcome to Reading Excuses! You're welcome to sub (following the guidelines of course), but we do generally ask people to do some crits before they sub the first time. Get into the groove and all that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would love to read your stuff, I'm sure. Shaking people out of funks is our speciality As Kais says, we need to get you signed up to the email list. Can you please PM myself and @Silk with the email address you wish to receive submissions to. (Silk is the big cheese around here, I am merely a common lackey and occasional footstool.) As Kais says, if you haven't already, please do have a gander at the forum/submissions guidelines. Delight to have you with us! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarkinTyvell Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Oh, right, forgot that doing some Crit work first was suggested in the guidelines. I'll take your suggestion and do that for a week or two before I submit. I'm trying to get a PM to you and Silk Robinski, but for some reason it's thinking I'm doing a link with spam... I'm sure it's because I'm new, I'll figure out a work around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silk Posted April 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Welcome! You’re added and good to go. FYI all, I’m away this weekend at a songwriting workshop starting in, well, a couple of hours and the schedule is pretty aggressive. Which is another way of saying I might leave you all to count to five on your own for this week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MistbornAlpaca Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 I'd love to jump on the submission train this week if there's room! It's been a while since I've submitted and I think I've actually got something worthwhile this time! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
