Hello, i am writing a new fic with a different childhood for Naruto, and, well, as english isn't my first language, and that this is my first fic, i was wondering how i could manage to find people to read and comment on the first few chapters before it goes out (and spellcheck, too, i guess).

If you want more detail about the fic, just ask, and i'll answer under a spoiler tag.

Hum...that's actualy very nice of both of you. Please pm me your mail address of you wish to read my first chapter. As to what it is about:

Spoiler! --Click here to view--

The Yondaime's seal has the unknown side effect of weakening the barrier between Naruto's self and his previous incarnation's. Only that would just make for a "never give up" attitude we see in canon, but my Naruto has an "accident" against some villager where he shows the exact temperament that his other self had. It wouldn't have any effect on a twelve years old Naruto, but this happens when he is six. What ensues is that he gets memories. Of course, there are no jutsus in those memories, nor any "special" kind of power. What there is, on the other hand, is an absurd amount of self-confidence and determination. Naruto, in canon, is known for having the power to mends one's heart. *This* Naruto, however, has the knowledge of what kind ninja he can hope to be, and prepares himself to achieve that.

It is a bit more complicated than that, so it might be best to ask me for the prologue, but i guess a summary can help.

That sounds a little like Mat Cauthon in Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, so maybe u can read them for more inspiration or something, if u havent already. Just trying to help

It does doesn't it? Except that the whole point of it in this fic is giving Self-confidence in Naruto, while it didn't really change mat in WOT...
