Calling All Betas!

[rusting-roses.livejournal.com]

 As you guys hopefully remember, our challenge will be wrapping up in a few weeks here! With a few prompts hopefully coming in as early as the first week of July, I thought that now might be a good time to discuss betaing! Since your fics must be betaed before they can be posted, if you don't already have one, here is resource for you: If you are interested in betaing or need a beta, just leave a comment or answer someone else's. I fully encourage you all to get this settled as soon as you can, so as to give your betas the maximum amount of time to pretty up your fics.

As usual, you can drop any questions or concerns in the comments as well.

Thanks, and I'm looking forward to reading all your work! :D

(I was wondering when this would be up. Thank you!)

I'm looking for a beta for both my stories. I need someone who's good with Dairine's character; I'm not worried about anything else.

Both are technically canon crossovers: Doctor Who (Eleven) and Star Wars. They're already finished, and are 1600 and 1200 words respectively.

I'd be willing to have a stab at them. rbg at paradise dot net dot nz.

Thank you! :D

Any particular format?

[shadowsinfire.livejournal.com]

You're welcome :) .rtf or .doc, preferably.

I'm certainly willing to beta one or two stories -- and if you ended up with one of those Doctor Who crossover prompts, I'm also knowledgeable about Doctors Nine through Eleven :)

I, too am willing to beta a fic or two should anyone need it!

I need a beta-reader, preferably one who can Ameri-pick, as I'm British. My fic is about 2,500 words, I should be able to get it to you in the next day or so, and my posting date is July 1. *looks hopeful*

I'm also happy to beta-read! My strengths are SPAG, overall flow and characterisation. Please note, though, that I'm not American, so may not pick up on any non-Americanisms.

I can do it in time for July 1st, if you'd like :)

Thank you very much! I'll send you the file by the end of tomorrow US time, hopefully. Please could you let me know your email address? If you don't want to post it here, just email me at i.in.the.door@gmail.com (unless you have another way of doing the beta-ing). Thank you!

[rusting-roses.livejournal.com]

You can just email me the fic at rustingroses@gmail.com and I'll have it back to you within a day or to :)

I'm in need of a beta. I think what I need focus on is overall tone and pacing, as well as description. A good general go-through, in other words.

My story's about 2800 words, OCs, with an OFC/OFC romance. I post the 8th.

Hey, sorry to just be seeing this now, but if you're still in need of a beta I could help you out ASAP - email readingredhead07 at yahoo dot com. I've got nothing to do for the rest of the night :)
