I am volunteering out of different reasons . First thing is, I am always interested in that kind of literature (guess it's time to out myself as a LARPing guy?). Second, I have studied some semestres of history, therefore my interest in medieval-ish things is even greater (why am I even watching Starcraft?). Third thing is, I really love reading your write-ups and comments (although you warned me for a balance whine ). So, if you want to give me a shot, don't hesitate to PM me.
I am also writing some stuff myself (though I wouldn't dare to give it to anyone else since I'm kinda ashamed of the quality), though it is in german only.
Last, but not least, a helpful tip: there is a tool called the "Scrivener" which is used by movie script authors, authors in general etc. and is really great and helpful for writing in general. I don't know how you're rocking, but I got a Windows PC and a Macbook, so it sucks for me since one license is only valid for one OS (I discovered that the hard way ), but it may be useful!

I love you for linking that. Immensely helpful, thank you!

Sure I'll read it. I've written a lot of prose and published some so I'd maybe be able to be of some help. Is it in quite a finished state or are you still quite rough?
Are you looking to prep it for publication or just get feedback on the story and style?
Either way, if you want I'm happy to read it.
P.S Won't steal, not a douche.

It's kind of 50/50. I'm a little disorganised in my writing, so some chapters have been revised three times and are in what I would consider mostly finished states, while others are very rough (AKA unfinished) and full of question marks.
As for whether or not I'd like to prep for publication; I don't know. I would like to. I love the setting and I like the core plot, so I'll definitely keep building on it in another story if I decide against it. Right now though, I still need to get to the end of it and I'd like some feedback on a bit of everything before that point.
