Beta Request Take 2 - Can anybody help?

[bk_forever]

I had hoped to get another bingo fic posted today, but life conspired against me. I have to to out tomorrow so much of the day has been spent getting organised for that. What with trying to get another fic written, I didn't have time to post one as well as today's drabble. However, I did eventually manage to write one.

That means I now have two bingo fics to be betaed - one of just under 1000 words, the other over 1700 words, so I'm looking for a couple of volunteers. I'm trying not to dump all my fics on just one person, and I still have another 9 prompts to write, so if anyone can beta one of the two I have ready, or would like to volunteer in advance for one I haven't written yet, I'd be very grateful - I know many on my f-list are busy with their own bingo cards and other writing, but if anyone can spare a little time, that would be great!

Thank you! *hugs*

You are free to send me another one. Don't hesitate to ask. I know I owe you a reply to your last email. I'll respond when I get home. Typing this while on the bus on my mobile.

Do you still need help? I'm willing to give one of your fics a lookover.

Thank you! You're awesome!

I'll send you the Insomnia one I wrote today, if that's okay! *hugs*

[bk_forever]

Yes please! Can I send you the Wordless Communication one? That would be awesome!

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

That's fine. Do you still have my email address?

[bk_forever]

I've got an aol addy for you, hopefully that's the right one - I'll send it to that and we'll see, I guess!

Thank you! *hugs*

That should work. My other email provider is apparently down for maintenance or something. :)

[bk_forever]

Great! I just sent it so you should get it soon =)

Email providers can be so helpful at times o_O

Thank you!

[milady-dragon.livejournal.com]

Got it! And no problem, I'll get this back to you ASAP. :)

[bk_forever]

Thanks very much! =D

Now if I can just write the last 9...

I have two big multi-part fics with betas as well, for three and four bingo squares respectively - one might be for 5 squares, just waiting in a reply from the mods, I might have to email them.

I also have another completed fic, but that's a sequel to the big multi-parter and makes more sense if the previous fic has been read first. Ideally I'd like to get that posted before I look for a beta for the sequel. I'm a busy bee!

I am frankly in awe of your brain. Just saying... *grins*

[bk_forever]

I'm not sure it's worthy - I have 9 squares to complete and only one idea. This is not good, lol!

Plus I have to write something for the new challenge at fan_flashworks... o_O

Hey. Not sure if my help is needed/wanted since I'm mostly a lurker and we don't really know each other, but I have free time since it's summer break so I'll be happy to look stuff over. I'm not too sure how well I can critique characters and I can't Britpick, but I can English! *said with poor grammar on purpose!* (lol) American English, that is. I'm fairly proficient in it. *snorts* Anyway, let me know if you need something looked over.

...I feel like I just wrote a response to a job-seeking ad or something. A cover letter, maybe.

(don't mind me; there have been very few sleeping hours lately)

LOL! I think I know how you feel right now - to complete my bingo csrd I have to post 19 fics in 16 days, and 8 haven't even been written yet! I don't know if there's going to be time to have things betaed at this stage, but I'll certainly keep you in mind if you have an email address I can send to - you can PM me.

My first ever beta job was for someone I didn't know who took a chancve on me, we're still friends 6 years on. i was just a lurker back then myself so I have no problem with that at all, thank you!
