Hey all you FF authors, just wanted to let you know that I am now officially a Beta reader (hurrah!), and I am absolutely willing to look over anything and everything you might want to have proofread. Please feel free to contact me if you have ANY spelling/formatting/grammar related questions about your stories, or if you just want general suggestions.

Lotsip Do YOU wanna be a Beta Reader??? 16 Aug 8 2009, 6:10 PM EDT by Lotsip
Thread started: Aug 4 2009, 10:33 AM EDT  Watch
The FF section is in need of new Betas and that's why I'm asking you if anyone out there is interested to be one.

Being a Beta means:

1. Helping out with proofreading FFs and correcting grammar or other trouble with texts when help is asked for. (Authors will contact you, not vice versa)
2. You individually work out with each author that has asked for your help what kind of help they want. We're all different!
3. You should obviously be VERY good in English ;)

It does not mean:

1. Randomly correcting grammar in FFs you happen to come across.
2. Changing a text so much that it's no longer the author's. (Incidents like these have occurred a few times)

If you are interested, please state so in this thread or send me a PM and I will add you to our list of Betas.
Also if you have any questions, feel free to ask them here so we can all get the answer! :)

It says, "list of warnings below"
but there are none.

Am I just being silly?
