Trolling for Beta Readers

New story, set in ancient Mongolia, about a girl picked by a lottery to appease a dragon, needs beta readers.  It's about 10,000 words long, and not my usual style.  It's got a lot of emotionally scary stuff, but on the bright side, the structure's a lot better than "Siren Bridge" and I don't need the comments for at least a month.  Any takers?  Thanks in advance.  Cheers, Jean Marie

As noted in my tweet, the next voice you’ll hear on Gail Z. Martin’s Ghost in the Machine podcast is mine. She did an amazing job, especially considering I was having one of those days where my brain wasn’t talking to my mouth. LOL Sometimes I think writers have more of those than anybody else. Enjoy!
