What is this infernal itch?

[wayfaringwordhack]

Why do I have this near-irresistible urge to post some chapters on the OWW? Every time I get a telltale that someone else has posted, my little writer voice says, "And our chapters? Don't you want to post our chapters, too?" And then I start thinking that maybe, if I'm not going to post, I could at least send it to betas, and, and...

Does anyone else experience this itch to be read, to share their creations, even if the creations aren't quite ready?

But, folks aren't interested in my stuff, so I just re-read it myself.

Why do you say that?

However, if you need a beta reader, my hand is up. I always like to read other people's work. :D

Thanks! It will be with pleasure...if you are still interested a year from now. :P I aim to achieve first draft by Sept 20. I'll then let the project sit until we get back at the beginning of May. I hope--between and betwixt all the moving, apartment- and job-hunting--to do a first pass by June's end. *Then* I'll look for betas. :D
