DCBB 2015 - Call for Alpha Readers [CLOSED]

[girlgotagun]

[Call for alpha readers is now closed--thank you all!]

Okay guys, here's the skinny:

I have officially finished the pre-draft planning for my DCBB and I'm going to get started on the early draft this week.

Anyway, as per the FAQ page on deancasbigbang, I am required to have a beta reader for things like mechanics and grammar, and I have been fortunate enough

I've never done anything like this before but I'd be happy to help. Don't worry I wouldn't critique your grammar or spelling because If I was any good at that or sentence structure I'd would be writing!

[girlgotagun]

Lol. Awesome. :D That's not to say that an alpha reader can't give that kind of feedback, but I didn't want people to think that's what I was asking for since, as you say, it's not everyone's strong suit. :3

I'll add you to the group. Thank you dear! <3

I'd be happy to Alpha for you

[girlgotagun]

Thank you! Added you to the group. :)

Aww Damn it

[ereynolds74]

As much as I would love to Alpha read for you, cause I love you and your works, and you've been freaking awesome about my prompts :)

I'm not a Destial fan :( not my forte so I've always been respectful to all the warnings and tags. So I have no one to blame but myself if I even read one :)

But good luck and you do have my love and support in mind and spirit, I know those big bangs can be quite a challenge and also gratifying when you finish.

your fan and hopefully friend,
Elizabeth

Aww well thanks hun. I'm planning on doing a few more big bangs before hanging up my hat in this fandom, so maybe one of them will be more in your tastes. :)

And we're totes friends. Glad you're good with that because I'd say we were even if you didn't think so. :P

Um, you can never leave the spn fandom. Just wanted you to know that! :P

[girlgotagun]

Oh, that's so sweet. Thank you. <3

No worries. Even if I do it'll be years off. :3

I would love to help alpha for you. You are an amazing writer, and I would love to be able to read your big bang without having to wait all the way until November. :) I would certainly be happy to help alpha your story as you go along! I was excited to see you were doing the Dean Cas Big Bang, I can imagine your story is going to be epic (like everything you write)! <3

[girlgotagun]

Oh shucks, you'll make my head all big. :3

Adding you to the group.

[ohwillothewisp]

Thank you! I'm so excited! I've done quite a bit of editing in the past, but usually for friends College papers. I've never done this with fiction before. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you come up with! :)

[girlgotagun]

Well, the first chapter will probably take a few days but I'm gonna throw the master post up this evening so the story info will be available. Also to test out the privacy setting because it's the first time I've used a custom group. So I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the premise. :3

I also love alpha reading (and beta reading too, but alpha/general feedback is always more fun than copy editing), and would LOVE the chance to help you out. You're awesome. =]

If you already have one, lemme know if you ever need an alpha/beta(/gamma?) reader for another work.
