      Hey all!
      I’m wondering if any of you would be interested in a beta reading a short story of mine. It’s titled “Origami Cranes” and is about 2,500 words long. I’m hoping to enter it in a competition and I’d like a couple of opinions and suggestions about how to improve it.
      thanks, 😀

                          @Emily @Shannon @dragon-snapper @that_writer_girl_99 Here’s the link, please let me know if it works. its currently 2,665 words long but the competition requires it to be no more than 2,500 words long, so if you have some ideas on what parts I could cut out to shorten it, please tell me. Other than that, I’m happy for any sort of critique, grammar, word choice. what do you think of the characters and plot and such like. Does that make sense?
                          Here’s the link here, hopefully it works. Origami Cranes

                            Thanks @seekjustice, I have sent you an access request. Just so you know that I’m not some random person, my email begins with texanforlife. That isn’t all of it, but I didn’t want to put the whole thing out here for the world to see. : )

                              @Shannon I’ve given you access. This is the first time I’ve actually tried to use a google doc, does anyone know if I can make it available for you to simply click on the link and see it? Rather than requesting and allowing access to all of you?
