1 -- I'd like a beta in general. Just someone I can send all sorts of fics to at any time (I'm not particularly impatient, though, so if you have a slower turnaround time than most, that's fine).
2 -- Grammar runs really isn't what I need -- yeah, it's helpful to have someone triple-check me, but I taught ESL, I'm a WTP submissions mod, and I MST, so I catch most of my mistakes without any difficulty. What I *really* need is someone who keeps my story focused and tight, because on my own, I'd be perfectly capable of adding all sorts of useless stuff. Basically, if the story sucks, I wanna know.
3 -- Be as mean as you want, I'm not thin-skinned.
4 -- The more detailed you are, the happier I am. I love detailed comments; it helps me know what's good and what's bad.
Wow. I know that's a lot to ask, but even if you can't do all of that, any help would be great. Especially the whole sounding board thing. Basically, that's me with a bunch of ideas going... "Does this WORK?"
Right. A general description of what I write: 99% of it is House/Wilson (occasionally, something else totally out of left field comes. If it's not House/Wilson, I'll tell you the pairing beforehand). Usually it is humorous (at least, I like to think so) and plausibly cute (I do not have House whispering tender nothings in Wilson's ear, I do have him occasionally doing the dishes). I have a lot of shorter fics and a lot of longerfics I'm working on. I prefer to send fics over while I'm working on them to see if they work and to get an idea which direction the fic should go.
Many thanks! (just reply if you're interested)
