If you'd like an objective eye I could look at your piece for you. I was the editor of my campus newspaper a couple semesters and love editing. I can get pieces down to word-count by primarily condensing language and not removing content. I could make some suggestions and if you don't like them you don't have to use them.
Oh, wow, that's so cool! Seriously, if you don't have a problem with reading my shonky writing/plots, then I would very much appreciate your help. :3 Thank you for the offer! Would it be easier to email/PM the original to you, or just make a post on here?
I have a feeling I'm going to miss the heat once it actually gets cold ... exactly how hot is it over there?
I'm not sure about the temperature, as I don't ever check. I just moved in March and the new apartment has AC and I keep it at 72 degrees 24/7! I'm usually a homebody, but I've gone out a lot these past couple weeks and it went from uncomfortably hot to miserably hot Thursday. And it's kind of ironic, because I went to Conan's test shows both Thursday and Friday and on Thursday I was stuck standing in the direct sun, but yesterday it was cooler and we stood in the shade, but I got sunburned! Since we arrived super early (we were the second group in line) we did have to sit outside the gate for a while and it was quite sunny there, so that's probably where I got burned.
I just looked it up and it's supposed to be in the 70s today and in the upcoming week :D I'd still prefer cooler (or, ideally, rain!) but I'll take it.
Ahhh, nice. The wonders of AC, huh? ;) Really hot weather can suck, as does sunburn. :( It always gets you when you think you're safe! The summer that just passed for us had some crazy hot days. You just feel like lying around doing nothing all day!
Haha, glad to hear you won't melt then. :D And I'm totally with you on the rain. I'm hoping this winter brings heaps. :)

9 degrees?! I'm so jealous. It's hot in L.A. :/
