I keep doing this, but . . .
Feb. 19th, 2011 11:23 pmIs anyone interested in helping to beta The Way Down? Harry/Draco, around 70 K, NC-17 but not very often. I have a beta, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
scabbyfish, who is delightful and awesome. But I would appreciate another pair of eyes, particularly someone who:
-can Brit pick
-can edit for redundancy, clarity of ideas, AKA can reassure me that large chunks of narration are not needed
-understands that Harry probably doesn't gaze at his navel nearly as often as I gaze at mine (or gaze at his, for that matter)
-is good with story shapes and themes
-is alright dealing with a story that deals with mental health
-thinks that what I've written so far is at least sorta worth your time
-can do a chapter a week or week and a half (9 chapters, 70 K words, three chapters are done, which leaves 6 chapters and 45 K)
Some very nice people offered before, whenalaana_fair so kindly asked on my behalf, but that was a while ago now and I don't know if anyone is still interested? While I'm sure there are spelling and grammar issues (aren't there always) I'm more eager to get Brit picking and someone to help me trim the fat, like scabbyfish. But I'll settle for Brit picking and someone who can do a chapter a week.
