Alex Rider Beta?

[kennahijja]

Um, would somebody be interested in beta-reading 23,000 words of Alex Rider fic (i.e. my spy_fest contribution that would very much benefit from a second pair of eyes with better English than mine)? Yassen/Alex, NC-17 (but not too much of it), with quite a bit of violence. Anyone

I'm gonna say yes, but only unless you get a 2nd offer, because I'm a natch tight on time this week and have already promised someone a beta for something over 10k.

However - comfy with English, not scared of NC-17 or violence, quite like Yassen/Alex though not overly familiar with the fandom via anything except, er, mostly your fics :).

Thank you so much. Actually, I should have mentioned that time is not an issue - the fic has been lying around for a month already because I was too busy with other things, and can just as well wait for another. So I'm definitely not asking for it this week (or even next). Does that sound ok? And yes, it's basically the English and also the NC-17 bit that gives me second thoughts. So would no deadline be ok?

Sure, then, fire it on over! ships.harry at gmail.com :).

I would always be ready to beta anything by you, but the trouble is that I am not familiar with that particular universe. If you can find nobody else...

Thanks very much for offering, in an unfamiliar canon no less, but I think I found somebody.

Hey - gods, I feel so bad about not having done this yet! I'm even sitting on a completed beta reading, but so much has happened recently, I've had no time to tackle this.

But if you want to see the unbetaed version, it's here

I love you so much right now :).
