Aside from the mistakes (we all have our faults, my stuff ain't so hot going back to '04/'05) this wasn't half bad at all. Nice job!

This is one of the reasons I really need to get betas:)

Thanks:) Its interesting going through the old entries here...finding stuff I've forgotten about (some things I wish I could still forget, including one slash story that I posted to ff.net just to see what the reaction would be...there was no reaction as of yet).

I'm going to have to find this book and find out the title. I'm not sure why I didn't post the title of the book when I post this.

Well I might not be great with characterization but I'm good with spelling and grammar. Just putting the offer out there, you know where to find me.

What's the slash story?

Maybe you just forgot to post the title.

Feel free to pick one of my stories to butcher:) They all need it and half my betas seem to drop off the planet after I send them my chapters.

Appetizers. It's Neville/Blaise but you don't have to know Harry Potter really to read it. It's kinda off-canon anyway since I have Draco/Ginny my OTp mentioned.

Maybe.

I think I'm going to go through my entire journal and start tagging things. And posting stories to my greatest journal. I edited and posted the two stories we were looking at today there already.

So all stories on here are fair game? Cause I'll just start going through them one by one. And if I finish beta-ing, what do I do then? Do I send them? (I'm full of questions)

Going to read that right now.

Good luck with the tagging!

Depends on how you want to do it. You can comment on here, or send me an email or send a document with the changes. Its up to you:) And yeah, they are all fair game. The only one that has a beta that has actually stayed with me is "Memories of the Past".

Hope you think it's ok. It's kinda one of those expirament fics, writtan just to see if I could.

Thanks:) *is off to tag!*

I can do any of those things, although if it's a document, I use Word, so I don't know if that would work. Let me know what you prefer. It don't matter to me.

I'll leave a review there when I'm done.

well, I have it if you want to use it. It honestly doesn't matter to me. I'm just glad they are getting beta'd by someone who isn't me.

We could always reserve the Doc for fics with alot of corrections if you prefer, using the comment/email for those who don't have alot. If that makes anysense.

Thanks:)

You know, I wish there was a way to delete all the tags and restart.

Alright, will do.

There isn't a way to delete all tags? I didn't know that.

There is a way to delete them by indivisal entry, but so far I haven
t found one that does the whole journal. It's kinda hard to find things that will take place over the whole journal except for layouts and such.

Individually doing it...that would drive me nuts.

sokorralewis July 15 2007, 01:51:54 UTC
Wait..spoke too soon. I found a way:) Now maybe I find some semblence of order in the tags.

Starting fresh is always good.

sokorralewis July 15 2007, 01:54:41 UTC
True:)

Although I swear I will never do that to Ladybeth. Dear god, going through six years of entries and re-tagging would drive me crazy.
