For Hermione Smut...
Pairings: Can't really say, but there are three stories all with different pairings and two of them are crossovers. The other is a rarepair.
Rating: NC-17
Length: Under 10k each, probably around 4-6k
Warnings: Language, UST, maybe some violence, definitely lemons
Experience: Preferably GE or PI accredited, but I'm mainly after someone for SPaG for these stories. Have an alpha to point out my plotholes, and I'm expecting an extremely fast turnaround with these as I tend to leave things until as close to the deadline as possible. Deadlines are my motivation!
Permanent beta...
I had someone lined up to take over the job of being my permanent beta, but I haven't heard from her for ages, so I'm re advertising the position!
Pairings: I mainly write Hermione/Sirius and Hermione/Draco, but I am also dabbling in various rare(ish)pairs like Hermione/Marcus and Hermione/Oliver, as well as some crossovers with other fandoms I write in like Avengers. You will have to be a multipairing fan, there isn't much I'm adverse to other than Hermione/Ron.
Ratings: All ratings
Warnings: Language, Lemons, UST, Violence, AU, Adultery
Length: Permanent beta for all stories
Experience: Preferably GE or PI accredited. Please link me a couple of stories you've betaed for in the past
I'm looking for a beta who is willing to work on all my stories, which I'm a bit sporadic at writing at best. I get distracted by different fandoms from time to time, so I may be out of touch for extended periods. I write mainly Sirimione and Dramione, but am in the middle of writing a Marcus/Hermione and am likely to write more of this pairing in the future, as well as some crossover pairings (Tony Stark, Clint Barton, Phil Coulson, Dean Winchester, Alec, and The Doctor have been intriguing me as of late)
If you are interested, I strongly suggest that you first read some of my stories, as my writing style is not for everyone. I'm not one for spending two pages on describing someone's outfit, or fluffy professions of love. I'm direct and frank with my dialogue, and enjoy writing slightly obscure dark humour. My characters swear, talk dirty, and are often morally ambiguous. I use a lot of foreshadowing and often use insinuation rather than directly spelling things out for the reader.
I'm also not into being super strict with canon characterisations, mainly because I write mostly future AU fics, and I have a strong belief that people change as they grow older. I did, I can't see why our favourite characters won't either. I don't take kindly to people telling me my characters are OOC because they don't act exactly like they do in the books. People grow and personalities develop. If you can't handle this idea then we wouldn't be a good fit.
My main priorities are that you are reliable, good at communicating (I reply to emails as soon as I receive them, I get frustrated when I have to wait days for responses), and reasonably fast at editing (preferably under five days per story or chapter). You need to be honest, not afraid to question my motives, and willing to not hold back on valid criticism. I'm not just looking for someone to check my SPaG, I need someone to push me towards writing better endings and scene transitions, as well as the ability to catch minor continuity errors.
