Hello! I need a beta!

I am used to writing academic work and I worry about my fiction, particularly in regards to awkward wording and repetitiveness. Also I have been told I abuse commas. This is the first fiction piece I've finished in ages, and the first piece I've shared with more than a handful of people in years. It does contain kink elements in form of Daddy play (although I wouldn't classify it as age play). Both characters are consenting adults who are not related.

You can reach me at tellingetienne at gmail dot com. Thanks :)

Hello lovelies, I'm volunteering to beta one (1) story for the Color Wheel Yes, And issue. I'm happy to help with the usual spelling and grammar issues as well as characterisation and flow, but would rather not deal with plot construction - in short, a beta reader, not a co-writer!

This is my first time doing anything for SSBB - consider me a de-lurker, I guess! I'm also planning on writing a little something myself for the same issue. I'm Australian, so my personal written English basically follows British English guidelines, but I am also familiar and confident with written American English.

For examples of my own writing, please check out my AO3 here. I don't write much that makes it onto the internet these days, but that should be enough for illustrative purposes.

If you'd like my help, please respond directly to this comment. Have an awesome day!
