Hello minna,

I really need some help from someone (a few someones in fact). I am
planning on putting out a new fanfic soon (within the next 2-3 weeks) and I
desperately need some pre-readers. The pre-readers need to have the
following qualifications:

1. Be willing to read a VERY long story (100 + pages or more).
2. Have some familiarity with Dragonball Z, though that isn't really
necessary since I explain everything right off. However, a few characters
show up that may only be familiar to those who have seen Jinzoningen
(Cyborgs), Cell Saga, and Buu Saga DBZ.
3. Be willing to edit the story for language as well as style (some
familiarity with my other stories may be valuable, I want to know if this
new story appears to be a more advanced work than my other projects.)
4. Give serious criticism. If it sucks, please tell me WHY. If it's great,
please tell me too!
5. I -really- need someone who understands a lot of Japanese, and then
someone who DOESN'T. I have ONLY seen Dragonball Z (except for the piddly
few episodes on USA TV at the moment) in raw Japanese. I tend to use a LOT
of Japanese in this story, because I just can't see Vegeta saying anything
other than "Na..NI?!" or "KUSO!!!!", or Gokuh not saying, "Ora?" So, I
basically need to know if A. my use of the laguage is appropriate and B. if
the average layperson can still enjoy the story (there is a glossary
attached at the end of the story).
6. Reading _A Love to Last for All Time_ might give you a clue where I am
going with this story (eventually), at
http://www.wenet.net/~mdprice/lesson.html
(warning, although this is up on my page, both chapters are very much still
drafts.)

I know this is a lot to ask, but I would really appreciate the help. If you
interested at all, please mail me at:

Thank you!
