Anyone interested in proof-reading a story in english? :)

[Kyriakos]

It would be a real help... The story is currently at 1600 words, but will get at least twice that size by the end, and more realistically it will be near 5000 words. I am writing it in english (not translating it from something i wrote in greek).

So, if you are a native speaker of english, and feel you can help and have the time and interest, you can pm me
Issues will be about syntax mostly.

(mods: it would be great if you can allow the thread for a few days, so that any people can get in contact ^^ )

What genre? At only 1600 words it shouldn't take much effort.

Psychological, mostly. Some kind of hybrid of Kafka and Borges, i suppose.

Then sorry, my college days are done and I lean more towards pure entertainment. But if it's just proofing you want and I can make some time over the holidays, I'd be happy to read it since it's not really that large.

As long as it's mechanics (since this isn't my genre either, and I couldn't give you a competent answer as to whether or not it's good in that respect), I'd be glad to help.

(You might consider cross-posting this in A&E, if staff will allow, as there are some people who frequent that area of the forum who aren't OT regulars)
