I'm looking for a beta for my Supernatural fanfic. If anyone is interested, please send me a pm. Thanks.

Hiya

I need a beta for my upcoming fic "Mistaken Identity". Its AU with Aliens and will be mostly Dreamer fluff. Probably will be rated Mature. Based on an idea that if Lonnie and Rath could shapeshift, so could Max. Basically a three way triangle, Max/Liz/Kyle. Dreamer assured.

It probably won't be regularly updated, although I would like it to be, so kicking my arse to update may be part of the job ;)

I already have the short prologue written and the next chapter is on its way.

Thanks in advance

Melanie
Anyone?

I guess this isn't the conventional way of going about things but I'm looking for a beta to help me work out a specific plot point for a story that's already mostly written and plotted out. In fact I've been posting it, Deke's and DEBs over on the AU board.

As I said I've got it all outlined but I'm stuck on a specific point and I'd like someone to help me talk it out, bounce ideas off of, and possibly lend suggestions.

You can check out the story if you haven't already and pm me if you're interested.

Thanks

TAKEN, THANKS GUYS! :D


Hi guys, this isn't really a typical request, but I was wondering if there was someone out there who wouldn't mind helping me figure out some plot and character issues I'm having with a new story I want to post soon. Basically I just want to bounce ideas off of someone and get help with this one really tough decision I'm having. :lol:
It's going to be an AU without aliens and is a dreamer fic...that's about all I can say until I can talk to someone about it. :?
If I can't get it resolved, I may just have to abandon the fic and take up one of the others I'm thinking of.
You can PM me and we'll discuss it there or in Yahoo IM. Thanks.

Willing to beta in every category except Alternate Universe w/out Aliens and Slash. I know most crossover universes, however, it would be best if you PM me with your cross, and I will let you know if I am well versed in it. Prefer to beta only M/L stories or any story that Liz is the main character (UC/Cross).

I am pretty good at grammar. A wiz at spelling. So-so at punctuation. I use Word 2000, but also have Microsoft Works. I love to have people bounce ideas off of me and to give ideas. If you and I decide to work together, I will ask that you tell me exactly what it is that you want of me. Every writer has different ideas of how they want things done. I tend to change fonts and font sizes to Verdana 11pt. for easier reading for me, but I can change that back to your original when I am done if you desire. Just let me know. The changes I make, I make in the body of the text in red. I can also make a list with the line the change is on so that something as small as punctuation can be found. Or even just cut out the paragraph that the change is in. Although, I think that sometimes that can be confusing.

I would really love to work with some of the Dead and Buried fics (as an idea bouncer if nothing else) if someone feels inclined to bring one back.

I am really not as bad as this advert sounds, I am just detail oriented. ;-)

hey, guys!!

I'm writing a new fic, as an answer to behrlyliz's challenge #107 here.
It's CC, AU without aliens, and a new year one parter.

And I need a beta, mainly to bounce ideas with, because i'm still at the outline phase, and later to correct grammar and help me out with any plot mishaps.

Thank you!!!

PM me if you're interested.

EDIT - FOUND A BETA

:D :D
