There's this idea in the MLN Topic called "Click Trades." This is where two members need clicks on their modules, so they agree to both give x number of clicks on the others modules, so they both benefit. there's no actual item traded... just clicks.

Now why can't that apply to stories?

Here's my offer: I have a 14 chapter mystery epic I wrote for a contest that only got two small reviews. I want people to read it, but to beg would be hypocritical since I don't read many stories myself (the ones I am following all seem to be stalled out). So I propose a story trade: I will read some body's work, be it old or new, and write a nice review for it, in exchange for them to read my own epic and review it. Details can be worked out, but I could totally spend time reading on the weekends.

Any takers?
