Beta Volunteers needed!
We have a few participants for the DramioneLove Adopt-A-Prompt fest who need to find a beta.
Here’s the types of beta services they’re looking for:
1. Britpick = Fixes to British slang, British cultural norms, British places, British people behaviour
2. HP universe canon = Fixed to any misspelled HP canon terms or misuse of terms
3. SPaG (spelling, punctuation, and grammar) = Fixes to misspellings, incorrect grammar, mistaken punctuation use
4. Plot & Characterizations = Suggestions for spicing up paragraphs (choosing new words to say the same thing) and standard copy-edit redlining of story (e.g. "move this paragraph to above where indicated, delete this paragraph as it adds nothing new to the story & is too wordy, you're losing the characterization here - maybe tone down the aggressive response", etc.)
If you are interested in helping a fellow member of our community, and feel confident enough in your editorial skills to offer any of the above types of help, please respond with a comment to this post with the following information:
