Beta filter for the tardis bigbang fic of doom!

Feb 17, 2009 16:38

So I've made a start on my tardis_bigbang, and it's full of 'divers alarums' and...uh...stuff. I'm trying to make it big and plotty, but it's been a while since I've tried to write a big fanficton story, so this could go horribly wrong.

So, in an endeavour to do this thing properly, I want to set up a beta filter for it - any takers? I'll also be up for a beta ( Read more... )

fanfiction, martha, doctor who, writing, big finish audios, eight, leela, romana

Definitely count me in for beta-reading duties...

[Hugs] You're a star!

*hugs back* I've not started mine yet (partly because I'm working on a couple of other fics with closer deadlines!) - although I've fleshed out more of the plot synopsis, and worked out which DW S3 & S4 episodes (and SJA S1 episodes) I need to re-watch.

This has been the first real writing I've done in weeks! I've only been doing dribbles and drabbles recently, nothing solid, the muse was definitely not cooperating!

And yay! Martha and Sarah Jane fic! Always awesome :-)

I'm not well-versed in the BFA world, but would be happy to be a general reader on this one--sounds fun!

Cool! I'll put you on the filter - I'm hoping this will be readable by someone not totally familiar with the BFA's, so you'd make a good tester subject!

I should be cackling right about now, shouldn't I?

fourzoas February 17 2009, 17:58:44 UTC

Well, you've already started with the rubbing of the hands, so the cackling can't be far behind! LOL!

I may make a filter for my TBB fic tomorrow.

Consider me there - TBB solidarity!

If you want someone familiar with Classic Who, but not familiar with BFA on your list, then count me in. Even if it's only to tell you whether I can follow a plot point or not.

Haven't started writing my own yet.

Cool! The more the merrrier is what I say! I'll get a more rounded idea of what I should keep ,and what I should get rid of :-)

[Grins] Consider yourself added!

Toss me on there. No idea how much actual reading I'll get done, but you never know :) Familiar with old and new DW, though I'm not sure what a 'big bang' fic is. Guess I'll find out!

A Big Bang ficathon, is basically ficathon that specialises in long fic (20,000 minimum!). Artists also make accompanying artwork, and it's all loaded up onto a site.

Actually, I think Highlander could really benefit from a Big Bang ficathon - it's been a while since we've had something really meaty come out of the fandom (except for hlhl_shortcuts, of course!)
