Beta Sign-Ups!

[hopenight]

Hey guys!

So since we're going to have all these awesome events coming up; I figure it would be a good thing to get a beta list up. Sometimes it's hard finding a beta willing to work with an awesome fringe pairing like ours. So I figure that an easy to access list of all people on the comm willing to beta would be good for any beta-less Winn writer

Anything else? I'm here to make sure that your story's flow and characterisation is done well. Also I focus on tense voice and jumping around during the plot. I can also be a sounding board. I want to hear your ideas. I would love to actually.
Best Way of Contact: PM me and if we mesh then we can start the whole email thing

Anything else? I've found that google docs is amazing for editing documents. And work overnight and have a toddler, so I may not be able to give your fic all of my attention all the time. But I'll do my very best and I won't disappoint you.

Username/Name: charlie_butler / Charlie
Content/Grammar/Both: Grammar (I'd do Content also, but I have a tendency to either completely ignore canon or bleed my fanon imaginings into the characterisations.)
Highest Rating: Pshaw! I have no limits. Bring it on.
Fic Types You'll Do: I really don't discriminate much.
Fic Types You Won't: Nothing comes to mind.
Kink(?): Yes, please. lol I have nothing against it.
If Yes then what type: I'm, shamefully, pretty well versed when it comes to the more common kinks, and anything I don't know I'll happily research. What?! I'm just a naturally curious pervert!! lol
Any Squicks? I had boundaries at one point, I'm sure. Now? Not much puts me off. I'm a sick, sick boy. ;)
Anything else? I should probably have put this under 'Squicks,' but I won't let a little squickage get between me and the job, so I thought this was a bit more appropriate. I'm not especially fond of scat or really hopeless (super-duper-sucky-ending-sucky-life-sucky-emotional-angsty) situations. I find it odd that I consider those

Um well I think there are a couple. Not a lot of comms do it. I got the idea from when I did paperlegends the Merlin Big Bang challenge. They had a sign up for people willing to beta because some people have issues finding them.

Since Winn isn't one of the most popular slash pairings, even though we here certainly love it to bits, it can be hard to find people who want to beta for it. So I'm putting up the beta list so people can have an easier time finding someone.

There are a couple of beta comms around where you can volunteer your services or put your name out there.

I hope this explanation helps in anyway. And thanks for signing up!

Huh, that's kind of a bummer, because I've been wanting to beta for a while now but wasn't sure how to do 'sign up.'

Winn isn't my favorite pairing ever, but it's up there. I just love the whole student/teacher, jock/gleek dynamic they've got going on. (And the fact that the student/teacher thing makes it so much better makes me feel dirty.)

I'll just have to look around for them, thanks though. :D
