For anything other than fanfic, particularly anything that's going to be published (is it?), I take jobs that pay, and I don't suppose that's going to happen here. I also really don't have time right now. Sorry.
Not for me. An acquaintance has asked for proofreading and concrit on an original scifi story of hers. Sadly, I don't know much about scifi and I'm not very good at giving suitable concrit. Can someone tell me where I could direct her to some more suitable potential proofreaders?

I sounded pretty snobbish, particularly about the money thing. Sorry; didn't mean to. Just meant that, being short on time, I'm not much inclined to take extra projects that don't pay. I didn't mean I'd actually charge my friends.
I'll be happy to give it a shot. He/She can send it to winter@trashymail.com
That didn't work-ask your friend to try sending it to tempestguard@hotmail.com instead.
Trashymail is the usual dummy email address I use online, so I won't get spambots hunting my primary address, and it works for most things, but it seems it won't let me reply or grab the attachment, if any. Fortunately, I have a couple more that I hardly ever use, so the spambots can swarm them to their hearts' content.
