Maple Can Beta!

[Sparx]

Hey Maple!

User Name: StarkidSkyler
Story: The Untold Story
Category: I submitted it under Romance
Ships: James/Lily
Rating and Warnings: Just DH Spoilers for the Severus/Lily friendship
Word Count: 2700 in the first chapter
One Shot or Chaptered: Chaptered; I have two written so far, in the midst of a third.
Expected Beta Time: Probably no more than once a week, I take a while to write my chapters.
What do you need to most help with? Grammar? Characterization?: I'd say just the overall voice of my writing. I do pretty well with grammar and spelling, I just want someone to tell me how my writing comes off to other readers.
Permanent Y/N: Permanent would be lovely!
Summary: JK Rowling just barely whet our tongues in Deathly Hallows when she skimmed the surface of Lily and Severus' relationship. A story of fighting fate, friendship turning to enmity and enmity to friendship. This is the tragically beautiful story of Lily Evans, Severus Snape, and James Potter as they enter their sixth year at Hogwarts, unaware of the many changes which await them. **attempting to remain as true to JKR's canon as possible

Hey so this was rejected for technical errors I already have a great beta but it was recommended that I get a second, can you help?

Again, I have very little experience with the era, but I will give it a try. Still available

User Name: Potassium
Story: No More Murder
Genre: Dark/Angst
Ships: nil
Rating and Warnings: Abuse, Character Death, DH Spoiler
Word Count: 1264
One Shot or Chaptered: One shot
Expected Beta Time: 3 days
Permanent Y/N: Not yet, but if we go on well I may want you to be my permanent beta
Summary: Professor Flitwick shouted "No! You'll do no more murder at Hogwarts!" at Snape in the last battle. Given the role of Snape, the murder was not his intention. But what happened actually that left the professors in Hogwarts to believe that it was indeed a murder?

Addition Notes
I am an Asian and English is not my native, so I would like special care to grammar and spelling. But I would not mind for comments on flow and characterisation.

And I have another drabble on Snape. So I wonder whether you are interested to take that over since it's short? If you don't mind I'll be really glad. Otherwise I can find another beta. =)

Thanks.

Hey Potassium, I can do both.

Hey Maple, I was wondering if you could beta another fic for me.
User Name: Ascendio
Story: Do You Know Me
Category: Pretty sure it would fall under General Fics.
Ships: Contains Remus/Tonks, but hardly any of it concerns romance.
Rating and Warnings: 1st-2nd years
Word Count: 2423
One Shot or Chaptered: One Shot
Expected Beta Time: A week
What do you need to most help with? Grammar? Characterization? Grammar. I have a feeling I have a lot of run-ons in this story. Also plot help, whether it gets boring, because it has a lot of description and not much dialogue.
Summary:
The villagers of Little Devinton found Remus Lupin a very mysterious man indeed.

The views on Remus Lupin from the Muggle villagers of the town he lived in from about eighteen onward.


Let me know if you're able to do it.

[Maple_and_PheonixFeather]

You can shoot it on over.

[aurorahze]

User Name: Aurorahze
Story: Underage
Category: General
Ships: This fic primarily focuses on Ginny's thoughts and actions during DH, and though there is some H/G it is not the major plot point.
Rating and Warnings: 3rd to 5th years, Mild Profanity, DH Spoilers
Word Count: Between 5000 and 7500 for the chapter I'm interested in having looked over.
One Shot or Chaptered: One-shot; the story is chaptered but it is a collection of one-shots and I'm looking for a beta to do one specific chapter that can stand alone.
Expected Beta Time: Flexible, hopefully two weeks at most.
What do you need to most help with? I'd love help with my characterization, dialogue, and flow, as I'm writing characters (Fred and George in particular) that I haven't written before. I'm trying to keep the story canon-compliant, so it would be great to have a second pair of eyes checking the small details. Also since this is a more thought-driven piece, I want to make sure that I have enough action to balance the internal narrative, and I would appreciate help determining where the writing gets too long-winded or boring. Mostly I'd just really like someone else to look this chapter over since it's my first story, and I want to make sure everything is as correct as possible; on that note, I'm hoping to find a particularly nitpicky beta who isn't afraid to tell me if something doesn't work.
Permanent Y/N: Doesn't have to be, though maybe if you are willing and we work well together.
Summary: This is a series of one-shots detailing different moments of Ginny's life. Set during DH, these "missing moments" fall within canon and show the various ways that she contributed to the war effort without anyone's knowledge. The piece I am interested in having looked over is primarily set at Weasley's Wizard Wheezes and shows how Ginny develops the idea for Potterwatch during a conversation with Fred and George. The collection as a whole focuses more on internal thought than dialogue, though this chapter has more dialogue than the previous two; maybe you could take a look at what I've written so far to see if the style is something you think you could work with.

Thanks very much, please let me know if you might be interested in taking this on.

[Maple_and_PheonixFeather]

Yeah, I can do this, its no problem.

I'm going to say that I'm UNAVAILABLE from August 27-September 5, unless you are ok with a longer wait period.
