Sutcliff Betas

[carmarthen]

Here is where you can volunteer to be a beta for Sutcliff Swap! You do not have to participate in the exchange in order to be a beta. This exchange does not require betas, but we certainly encourage them, as a good beta can usually make a fanwork better!

Very Important: If you want to ask one of the commenters here to beta your fanwork, please do

Time Periods: Best with Roman Britain and Tudor England, moderately familiar with Viking stuff.

Topics NOT Willing to Beta: Would rather not beta rape/noncon (might make an exception for stuff implied in canon), likely not much help with PWP. Otherwise I think anything goes.

Books/Stories: Eagle of the Ninth, The Silver Branch, The Lantern Bearers, Sword at Sunset, Dawn Wind, Frontier Wolf, Outcast, Mark of the Horse Lord
Special stuff: Not so much a history expert (but I can keep you on the straight and narrow), but I am pretty good at Sutcliff-voice, cadence, finding plot holes, and the usual spelling and grammar issues. I'm American but comfortable with either American or British English.
Fanwork Types: Fic or art, although I am not an artist.
Topics NOT Willing to Beta: none.

Time Periods: Longterm love affair with 400-1066, but can make shift reasonably well with the Roman and pre-Roman material.
Fanwork Types: Art or fic
Topics NOT Willing to Beta: PWP, stories over 10,000 words, anything involving pet shops.
Other stuff: better on plot structure, characterisation and history than proof-reading/typo spotting. Self taught artist of no great expertise, but can at least offer a second pair of eyes if needed!
