Your assistance appreciated!

Hi Folks,
I am writing a story. I hope to eventuallypublish it. My target audience is ecologically-minded young adults and adults.

I am looking or volunteer readers to look at passages. I only know soil scientists, so your opinions as unicyclists would be valuable, even though there are no unicycles in the story. Sorry.

The story is about adventures that some microscopic soil animals have. It's strange, but fun so far.

I don't want to post it on line, because that is essentially publishing it. If you would be interested in reading passages and giving me good AND BAD feedback, PM me your email address!

Thanks!
Blake

Not long, about 2-3 single spaced pages.

I am just starting, so I want to get a solid hold on the tone and vocabulary that are acceptable and interesting

I think you already have my address in your PM. I'm an omniverous reader. Skills as critic yet to be determined, but would be interested in the project.
