If anyone needs a beta, give me a yell.
I'm willing to work on just about anything, RtB's and regular fanfic stories, AU's or canon. Almost any pairings are fine, except for explicit (meaning, sex acts are described in detail) Voldemort or Dumbledore/anyone. THAT, I will run from with all due haste. Because I inevitably get mental visions of snake-face Voldie and old, long-bearded Dumbles in my head. *horrified shudder*
No explicit (again, meaning described in detail) violence, rape, or extensive abuse (anything beyond open-handed spankings), please. Mentioning that it happened is fine, but I don't have the stomach for reading details, again because I have a vivid imagination, and the more detailed people are, the more detailed the mental visuals get. *shudder*
(If it gives you any clue, I can only just barely stand to watch the Alien movies ... mostly by closing my eyes at the gory parts. Thankfully, those movies depend heavily on a lack of blood spray going everywhere, though there is still some of it.)

I would be willing to help anyone who needs a Beta. I can help with grammar, spelling and word usage. I will help with RtB's, AU's and regular stories. Most pairings are ok except Harry/Ginny or Ron/Hermione, don't particularily like either pair. Also, no blood and guts (gory) scenes as I feel they really aren't needed.

I'm willing to be a Beta reader -I'm English so know the right slang to use, and I am addicted to the books, so know how to correct or find any plot holes. I am a grammar and spelling perfectionist, and I love cannon pairings, but not many others, especially not slash (unless, of course, the characters are supposed to be slash in cannon). I'm also not very good with explicit scenes, but will go through them if need be.

I'd also be willing to beta any Slash fics, RtB or not. Willing to do any Slash pairing (yes that includes Dumbledore/someone, though I wouldn't personally choose to read it). I'd mostly focus on correcting grammar, spelling and puntuation as I don't rate my ability to make my writing flow. I wouldn't like to change all that much of somebody else's fic either, so yeah. I'd basically just British-ise it and correct any mistakes.

If anybody at all needs a beta for a reading the book fic. I'm willing to oblidge, I can do any except twilight. I'll probably take like, maximum, two days to beta an ordinary length chapter. I know most of the books inside out so I can correct anything and I speak BRITISh english. PS: Ignore spelling mistakes, typing on a phone is difficult Cheers, Ruby

I'll Beta practically everything, if I don't know enough about it I may deny it, but I'll give you my reasons why and while beta-ing I'll try to keep opinions to myself unless asked or encouraged by the author. I really have very little social life, and from the way most of the kids in my school behave, I find this a good thing, because their definition of social is way out of my comfort zone. I can read very quickly and can type fairly quickly and will do my best to please the author. That's really all I can offer and I hope it is enough. Any questions, just message me.

I too would beta a story... I'm from Germany so my english is far from perfect but it's good for training. In school I was in an advanced english class and now that I'm out of school it is a nice way to keep on. Me being out of school is counterproductive because I'm working but after five I can look everything up. So whoever needs a beta for Gramma and content can contact me...

Hi everyone! If anyone needs a beta for anything, please do not hesitate to let me know. ;D I have an embarrassingly wide vocabulary, am an extremely efficient proofreader, and I love working with authors to create new plot advancements and twists. So yeah. I really am good at this stuff, and while I'm in my writer's block mode, I want to help others out of theirs. So holler at me if you even just want a slight second opinion.
