Beta List!

Sorry I've been slow to get this together, but here is the list of members who are willing to beta fic:

[livejournal.com profile] simplyn2deep
[livejournal.com profile] sharpiesgal
[livejournal.com profile] thtwzjustadream
[livejournal.com profile] amaryllisssa
[livejournal.com profile] heffermonkey
[livejournal.com profile] siluria
[livejournal.com profile] haldoor
[livejournal.com profile] dalwriter

All of the above beta readers have commented to this post with what they're happy to help with in terms of fandom, read-thru for basic errors, grammar/spelling/punctuation, characterisation, plot, etc.

Anyone looking for a beta can refer to this list and PM any of the above betas if they need some help with something.

It's okay for a beta to say no if they're busy or feel unable to help someone. For those of you here looking for beta help, you can always try someone else on the list if someone's unable to help you.

And remember, a beta is trying to help make a story better; they're not criticising the writer. Every suggestion to alter the story in any way is simply a SUGGESTION and the writer can accept or disregard that suggestion as they see fit. If you can't take concrit, be sure to tell the beta exactly what it is you want from their help before you get started.

Thanks, guys, and let's get some beta-reading done!
