Looking for betas

[lark_ascends]

Some people won't have a beta for their story.

So, if you can beta, please reply to this post.

You can specify how many people you are willing to beta for, whether you are willing to beta slash, gen, femmeslash or het.

Once you no longer want to beta, reply to your comment saying so.

If you are looking for a beta, and can't find one later on, reply to this post, and I'll see what I can find.

I would offer to beta, but I'm going to be away just before the ficathon finishes, and too busy to beta other then for my usual people.

This entry has been added to the memories, for easier access.'

EDIT: And of course, don't ask the person you are writing for to beta for you.

I will beta! :) As many as I have time for, and pretty much anything, unless there is explicit blood & gore, which will make me decidedly unhappy to read.

[pixie-on-acid.livejournal.com]

I'll beta. I can probably take on at least 2 extra people (over my regular people, whom of course I will beta for)... more if there's an emergency.

No... I don't have delusions of grandeur... why do you ask?

[pixie-on-acid.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, and I'll beta pretty much anything anyone needs done. There's just some things I won't write. ;)

[skripka.livejournal.com]

I'll beta up to three fics, but they have to be done before the final deadline, because I'm probably going to be franctically trying to finish my own fic at that time. :) As far as content, anything goes, but it should be at least spell-checked before coming to me..

I'm not writing in the ficathon, but I beta and can do up to three people if you still need betas. I'll do anything but Femmeslash.

[tsugath.livejournal.com]

I'm not writing, so I can beta if you still need people. Slash is preferred, and I don't mind kinks of any kind.

Well, I'm probably replying to this in all the wrong places, but would you beta for me pleeeeeeease? I've read a bunch of your stuff over at ncis_flashfic - the Poe one most lately - and could really do with a beta for this. Catch me, if you'd be up for it, at dollip23@hotmail.com

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

I'm available. Will beta anything, whatever I can, and will do so up until the second week before the deadline - unless uni takes up too much time. But you can always ask. :)

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

End of the second week before the deadline, that is.

[calleigh-j.livejournal.com]

Offering up my services. I'll read anything, as long as I get it a couple of weeks before the deadline, 'cause I'm off to uni on the deadline, so will be packing before then. But anything anyone cares to throw my way is cool.

[calleigh-j.livejournal.com]

Gah, I lied - can't really do post-'Twilight' stuff, as all I've seen (and am likely to see in the near future) of Season Three is 'Kill Ari'.

[lark_ascends]

Hiya.

Reply to one of the comments above, of people who are available for betaing, and ask them how they want you to contact them.

Leave a further comment here if the person doesn't reply.

[periwinkle27.livejournal.com]

Sure, I do Gibbs/DiNozzo for someone else.
Send it to peri@netscape.com and I'll look at it tonight.
I can handle Word, WordPerfect or RTF.

Hey Skripka...

Any possibility you would be interested in betaing for me?

:::bats eyelashes alluringly:::

I have a beta, but she's only seen two or three episodes of the show, and this one is going to need a strong eye on the characters. I'm going to push them a bit, and I'm afraid I'll go too far over the edge, and I want to keep this as close to character as I can, considering it's definitely going into a/u territory. If you want, I can send you my outline, to give you an idea of what I have in mind. And I'd send it through ozsaur first, so you could just concentrate on the characters, and not have to worry about the rest of the stuff.

Let me know if you're interested. I'm at dustandroses(at)hotmail(dot)com

Thanks!

[skripka.livejournal.com]

Hey...

Yeah, I'll do ya. *g* Just email me at my livejournal email when you're ready. I prefer rtf documents, but I can manage MSWord and txt, too.

[dustandroses.livejournal.com]

Cool...I'll be in touch soon. I may not have it all written when I send you the first of it, but that's because I don't want to have already finished it, and then you say that something is too far OOC to work. Hmmm...I'm sending ozsaur a rough outline kind of dealy tonight. I may send you a copy of that, just to give you an idea of what I'm thinking about. Thanks so much!

[skripka.livejournal.com]

Please do! That'd be cool.

[calleigh-j.livejournal.com]

Well, check me out above - I'll beta basically anything as long as it's not Season Three.

[alrielira.livejournal.com]

I've finished my story, and it's been beta'ed so I'm more then happy to beta anyone's story. I'll beta just about anything. So please, drop me a line if you need someone to check over things.

[omearalee.livejournal.com]

Looks like I'm a little late to this party, but I'll sign up to beta!

[kuyashinaki.livejournal.com]

I know I am a bit late, but I hope I'll get my fic done today or tomorrow the latest and I need someone who goes through the pain of betaing it for me. Would you be able to do it on such a short notice?

The main focus would be on spelling mistakes / word mistakes / expressions and grammar, because English isn't my first language and I am still pretty new to writing in English.

I think this story will have a maximum length of 3000 - 4000 words.

[alrielira.livejournal.com]

Aye, I'd be happy to help out. check out my profile to get my email. I'd be honoured to help ;)

[kuyashinaki.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'll be sending it to you within the next 5 minutes. But be warned, I didn't just lie about being finished yesterday the latest, it also got a teeny little bit longer than I thought (which is the reason I didn't get it finished like I planned ^^;)
I totally understand if you don't have the time to beta nearly 10k (yes, it got actually this long *drop*) in the tight timeframe left.
