Mike, you've summed it up well. smile

I was a TAXI (PLUS paid an extra $150 to be sent Dispatch requests) and NSAI member for a couple of years. Got zilch out of it. Compared to those combined membership fees, $72 (€50 euros) is nothing. NSAI provides 10 "free" critiques as part of the membership, but I found the bulk of them to be largely waffle. And none of the reviewers were au fait with the genre I like to write in.

As I mentioned in a previous post, my main reason for wanting to check Blazetrak out for myself is because much of my material is apparently suited to film/tv/theatre. Hence, I felt it could be interesting to submit a sample to a professional who actually works with this type of thing, and might offer advice.

I'm glad your own experience was - despite no response - relatively positive, and that you'd be willing to submit again. laugh

Anyway, folks, here's the original thread. (I was mistaken when I said the site hadn't been discussed previously.)

Stay tuned. wink
