Back + beta request
Whohoo! The server has finally been fixed, and after five days of annoyance I'm back online. I've been able to check my e-mail a bit, but I haven't read LJ, and I may not want to - if I know you guys right, I'd have to scroll back several hundred posts.
The upside of my down time is that I've finished number 2 of my four fan_the_vote assignments, the multifandom story written for writerpuppy. So now I could use a beta reader for it. The story includes characters from the following fandoms: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, West Wing, Roseanne, Fame, Coupling UK, Degrassi High, Press Gang, Lois & Clark, and Good Omens. Obviously, the beta reader doesn't have to be familiar with all of them. The mythology and basic idea is Buffy-centric, so that one's a must, but all others are bonuses.
It's good if the beta reader is fast, since the deadline is June 30th, but I could also let writerpuppy read it unbetaed. The story is of an unusual length for me: a bit more than 11,000 words. It was meant to be just 2,000, and I think the scope of the idea in combination with my wish to be brief created this medium length.
Now I just have two stories left, and if they don't become a lot longer than they're meant to as well, I should be able to get them done on time just fine...
