CP Needed for quirky supernatural book

[JuliaR]

I'm querying my first novel and not getting any requests, just form rejection letters.  It was suggested that I look for a critique partner.  I'm willing to read their work and critique in exchange for critiquing mine.  The story is a YA, comedy, about a vampire cat.  It's 104,000 words.  Maybe I need help.     I need to know what is wrong or what I'm doing wrong with the manuscript or query process.

Still looking for anyone that would want to help as a beta.  I'm willing to read their stuff in return.

I might be able to take a look at it. Have you posted the 1st chapter or any pages thus far?

Yes.    I posted the first chapter in the first chapter section. Its "Nine Lives in Blood."

I'll take a look and try to get back to you this weekend.

Hi Julia,

I read the first chapter this morning and have some ideas/suggestions. Would you prefer the critique written under the first chapter posted or emailed you? Your email address is set to private in your profile.

Hi Julia,
I have the same thing going on.  I have a 109,000 page new-adult supernatural novel in the query process. Have sent out 30, got 10 form rejections and 1 request for a full mss.  I have not posted my first chapter in forum, but got great feedback on my q letter and synopsis.  Would gladly read yours and critique in exchange for same! 

Thanks,
Julie

I'd be happy to critique someone's novel if they need it! In exchange, I'll send mine over, and we can trade :D
