If I posted some of my writing, would you read it?

It’s a novel about two secret agencies and assassins and what counts as murder and what does not. It’s also about looking at things from the “Bad guy“‘s perspective. Nobody ever thinks that what they are doing is “Evil”. Amoral, yes. But as long…

Really, whether or not you should post it all depends on whether or not you plan on doing anything serious with it.

More specifically, it all depends on if you want to pursue getting your work published in any manner - if that’s the plan, then I highly discourage posting any extended excerpts of the piece.  A publisher isn’t likely going to want to sell a story that’s already available for free to anybody and everybody on the internet.

( Especially since you’ve described it as a “novel” - that’s a lot of words, man!  Make the most of what you’ve written! : D  And it’s not like it’s a fanfic, where there’s not really any place for it outside of the internet… *looks as the amount of time I spend on fanfic-related matters and silently weeps* )
