Beta call for writers!
In a lot of ways, the beta is the most important asset a writer has. The beta is the voice of sanity. Of reason and logic. Sometimes, the beta is also the voice of smack-down. Ouchie.
Good betas point out continuity flaws, typos, rough patches, tangled sentences, convoluted punctuation, and a whole host of other problems. They do all of this tactfully and carefully so that the writer doesn't go cry in the corner after deleting their story.
Great betas are enthusiastic and squeeful, and help push, pull and drag the writer over the finish line. They cheer on the writer, give constructive criticism, and generally are made out of glitter and intelligence.
If you think you can handle this, then copy the coding from the block below, and paste it into a comment. Then fill it out, telling us all about your wonderful beta super powers.
Things that might be your strengths or weaknesses: line-editing, plot, structure, characterization, grammar. Specialized knowledge, familiarity with specific canons.
If you are in need of a beta for your story, copy and paste the code below, filling in the relevant information:

What are you looking for in a beta? I need someone who willing to try to sift through my fics who can try and fix it. My fics are not edited at all there no structure or defined paragraphs. I write things backwards because I am dyslexic. I am terrible with tense, spelling sentence structure and punctuation. I miss words or leave things out. I however know that my stories are good you can check them in the place I said above. as I use to have a beta It does have squicks such as non con first time bullying abuse incest violence blood and more so on so forth dealing things that might trigger someone I do write fluff as well
