Beta(s) urgently required!

Would anyone be up to beta - maybe co-beta - an epic angst-fic for me?

It's not quite finished yet - I think there's another 4, maybe 5 chapters to write so, about another month before it'll be complete, but since it's already 103,000 words long whoever takes on the task will probably want to be starting sooner rather than later.

Happy to give details, just let me know if you might be interested.

I'll do it! I meant to reply to your comment, but I've just been crazy this week with work...

Do you want to send me what you've got so far? Also, are you looking primarily for continuity/clarity stuff? Do you care or not about Britishisms?

S'OK hon, I was half-assuming, sine you'd already offered, that you'd still be up for it. ::smiles sweetly. bats eyelashes:: My main concerns are - given the nature of the way it's been written, chapter by chapter with sometimes long hiatuses between, that inconsistencies may have crept in, plot glitches, repetition so I'd defo need someone to check for all that. Briticisms, sure, and the usual grammar and whatever.

I'll send you the story so far today then. Thanks again for this, it's HUGELY appreciated.

Sorry for the time lapse, I got busy and thought I'd wait till the new chapter was done but that's taking its time. I'll send it out today, if you're still up for that? And thanks again.

It's (mild) slash - is that OK for you?

Sorry for the wait, I got distracted. :o) I'll send you the story so far today, then, assuming you're still OK for the beta? It'll be good to get a fresh perspective (The lovely Snycock above has been following it as a WIP, y'see).

Thanks again for the offer.

Send it off ... bardicfaerie@yahoo.ca Might not be able to start looking at it this weekend ... I brought accounting home .... but once the weekend is over I can start reading it. Let me know what you want me to concentrate on, or if its across the border spelling, grammar, etc.
