Looking for a beta reader

[gatewaygirl]

I have chapters of both my WIPs ready to go (the Teamwork one was finished weeks ago), but no beta. Anyone interested?

I've tried multiple times tonight to leave this comment foe Teamwork at DW without success. Couldn't send it to you as a message via there either. Couldn't post it last night (thought it was my connection at fault). Might be a DW problem? Anyway here it is:

Lovely chapter! You made the veritaserum effects palpably visceral. Harry's unguarded thoughts and pronouncements were wonderful. I really enjoyed Hermione being drawn back to be more of an ally to Harry and all the uncommon room scenes were great.

One small quibble is that I couldn't always tell who was speaking. It pulled me out of the story a few times whilst I tried to attribute correctly and lessened the impact of the dialogue. The basis of the quibble is a compliment though - I so enjoy reading this story that I follow it in great detail when I read each chapter. There is so much nuance and joy to be had in the interplay and complex relationships, that I really want to know who has spoken so I can extract as much meaning as possible.

I am reading almost exclusively in another fandom now. Despite the lure of shiny!new elsewhere, this story remains top of my wish list for more. I wrote much this same comment last night, only to have an internet outage destroy it. I kept thinking about the chapter all day when I had free mental time, so it was very easy to remember to return.
