Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I have a draft of a short book (~45k words) that's been sitting in my computer gathering electronic dust for a while because I'm too anxious to show anyone else outside of very close family. It's based in a shared paracosm we had as children, so I think it's doubly important to get some unbiased criticism from an online comrade.

I know there are designated online spaces for writers but I get massive imposter syndrome there. ๐Ÿ˜“ It's like a coming-of-age science fiction story, if that makes any sense.

DM me if interested, sorry for the ramble...

Sure. I'm already beta-reader for a web novel, and have written a few myself. (Appeal to authority or smth) Just DM me a link or something like that, and I'll take a look at it.

I don't read much fiction but I would love to read it anyway and give my terrible opinion.
