| Heya everyone, Just written a fic you think might need a little beta reading? This is the place! Fill out and paste this : Request for a beta reading or proof reading? Fic title : Genre : Rating : Pairings (if any) : Quick summary : Reasons for wanting a beta :Please be as accurate as possible, so that any potential beta readers "know what they're getting into" -so to speak. This thread always anyone who wants to beta/proof read as a one time thing to take a chance. _________________ I have my own reality, thank you very much. ~ "I was biting down hard on my lip, as I wrote you a poem in orange felt tip."

| Side note: This fic is actually in the Library section... so some of you may have read it already... Name: Alyss XD Request for beta/proofing: Proofing, please!! I just need someone to go over it, and point out anything that doesn't make sense, or could be improved. Fic Title: Whiplash Genre: Kinda angsty, but fluffy in the beginning. Rating: T for Teen Pairings: KenXYolei Summary: Ken and Yolei are spending some *cough* quality time together, when Yolei's ginormous mouth opens up and Ken's night turns from promising to not-so-good. Reasons: I know it's rather rough, and it can be refined a bit more, but if I end up doing it... it's not going to turn out much different than it already is. Question: What happens if, for instance, more than one person offers to beta/proof your fic?? _________________ Super Ken is almost here.

| Either choose one person, or let several go for it and see which version you like best or mash it all together... I don't know how you want to do it, it's up to you  _________________ I have my own reality, thank you very much. ~ "I was biting down hard on my lip, as I wrote you a poem in orange felt tip."

| Um, I need one. Name : Caitlin. Request for a beta reading or proof reading? Beta primarly; maybe proof reading. Fic title : One by One Genre : Mystery/Romance Rating : T. Pairings (if any) : Mimato. Taiora. Daicatherine. Willkari. Quick summary : Weddings are supposed to be joyous occasions. However, a murder on the loos can really put the damper on things. Reasons for wanting a beta : My story is crappy so far. I need some help because I'm completely stuck right now. And I'm bad at catching mistakes or awkward dialogue. I changed the first two couples. Sorry. _________________ Because I'm worth Kaname.

| It's okay, I don't need a beta anymore; I already have the first part finished and on fanfiction. net. Thanks for the offer though. Really appreciate it. _________________ Because I'm worth Kaname.

| So I need a beta... I'm filling this out according to the first chapter. Request for a beta reading or proof reading? Beta me hard. Fic title: TBA Genre: Romance/Angst (well, it's more wangst than angst) Rating: G Pairings (if any): Takari, but angsty and onesided. Quick summary: TK loves Kari, she does too, right? Well, no, not really. Just don't tell anyone. Reasons for wanting a beta: I want to be a better writer. Deep and thorough constructive criticism is needed. I want this fic beat into shape, bloody whipped into shape, whatever it takes. I want a beta who won't hesitate to be harsh, or to tell me I'm spouting nonsense. I want someone tough, like an effing drill sergeant. I don't want you to go easy on me, I want you to be blunt and go for it, hard. (I'm not a masochist, honest!) I've only written the first chapter so far. I know for sure that in later chapters: the rating will go up (T, possibly M,) and there will be other pairings (see below.) This fic is going to be a sort of rewrite of the fic I started last year for Aana's birthday. It was called the Love Kite. Aana had asked for something along the lines of "TK loves Kari, Kari loves Matt, Tai also love Matt, but what does Matt want? Neither sibling knows of the other's crush." Anyone want to take this on? _________________ I have my own reality, thank you very much. ~ "I was biting down hard on my lip, as I wrote you a poem in orange felt tip."

| Contact Darko or Matt. And if you need proof of their harshness, I can forward you the Word doc that they mutilated!  _________________ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ This is war Every line is about who I don’t want to write about anymore

| Or you can just get everyone in the forum to beta it. That would be fun... |

| Fun (the term being used loosely), though possibly counter-productive. I must admit, I did have either Darko or Matt in mind regarding harshness. What did they mutilate?

| If you're sending The Return, keep in mind that I went first, otherwise Darko would have had a lot more to say. |
