I think most people would just rather help you move a body. This made me laugh. So true!

opefully by the end of the year you'd have gotten back to me... I could totally get back to you before the new year. I'm only teaching part time right now and that probably won't change until next year. I've enjoyed all the time I have for reading but I totally understand if you're weirded out by having someone you haven't met in person read your work. If it makes you feel any better, I would definitely have you return the favor once I finish my book. I've been on a break all September but I'm starting to come out that shell again. Either way, good luck with the revisions!
