Betas
Betas are not required for this exchange, but they can be very helpful to you. A beta can help find connective bits you missed, tease out the strengths of a story, or offer insights on improvement.

Even if you aren't writing in this exchange, betaing for others is a great way to participate and have fun! Your valuable service is immensely appreciated.

If you want to help out as a beta, please reply in a comment to this post. The following information may be helpful:

-a name (especially if you're signed up - give your AO3 name to ensure you aren't asked to beta your own gift)

-how to contact you (we recommend email, but other options are possible)

-what canons you know, or are willing to familiarise yourself with (see the source spreadsheet and the sign-up summary showing which stories were requested).

-if there is anything you can't beta (by length, content, timing, etc)

-what kind of beta services you offer


Bonus:
-any specific expertise you can offer advice on
-document formats you prefer




Anonymous comments are on, but please make sure to give contact details.

ooo i love beta-ing…

name: featheryminx
signed up for this exchange: I am not :D
contact: featheryminx on discord OR featheryminx@gmail.com

I am willing to familiarize myself with any canon that can be read under… like 5 hours.

Mostly I am a spelling, grammar, and punctuation beta, and I am also happy to act as a sounding board if you want to throw ideas at someone and the rubber duck isn’t cutting it. If you want a lay-person flow/structure check, I can do that, but I’m not as good at that as I am at the other stuff (i.e. I would be giving you advice from a reader perspective on that, not like technical writer-perspective review)

Hi, I can help as a beta. I'm happy to do spelling/grammar for anything under 10k. I'd be able to do source feedback for most European fairy tales, I think (Asian/African etc I'd be starting from scratch.)
I'm not willing to beta erotica, porn, or graphic violence.

I'm DaisyNinjaGirl on AO3. Morbane knows my email! ;-)
Prefer Word or Google Docs, but as long as I can read it it should be fine.
