[OMG I love that word.]
Anyway, I actually do need a beta, because my novel long fic is finally well under way.
I have the first two chapters ready for beta-ing, plus the entire second part of the three written, but I won't make you read it and get really confused until I've finished the first part. >_<;;
I need someone who can pick out typos (I generally get them because I'm a grammar Nazi, but still.) and continuity errors and OOC-ness and details that conflict majorly with canon.
Chapters are from about 1500 to 2500 words (I'm estimating, everything's scribbled on computer paper at the moment) and I've planned for about eighteen chapters total.
I also need someone who can help me think of a title...because that might be useful....

I can do these things and volunteer!
I'll probably not sugar-coat things though. I'll just tell you "This works, this doesnt, fix this, this is a typo." In my experience, that's more effective. But I can see where that would be a turnoff.

Squee! I need a ruthless beta. When I have the first part fairly solidified I'll start e-mailing chapters to you. ^_^

(Yes, I realise I said the first two chapters were ready, but I changed my mind. Because I don't like them anymore.)

Oh, dear. You're not scrapping them entirely, though, are you?

No, it's not that bad. They're just a bit thin, I think. Ek.
