Beta volunteer post

Almost all of you have acknowledged your assignments: we're looking forward to the rest. Meanwhile, if you are able to offer beta services, please sign up here. Authors/artists looking for assistance please contact your chosen beta privately.

Please give a few details of the kind of help you can offer: e.g. plotting advice, SPAG, Brit- and/or Victori-picking, canon nous.

Thanks!

I can offer comprehensive beta reading and light Britpicking (spelling, some vocabulary).
I would prefer to work with fics that are either gen or Holmes/Watson. Mary/Watson would also be okay, especially if H/W is also included to some measure. :)

I'm happy to beta and will help with both SPAG and Brit picking. Also Victori-picking, although whilst I may be a Brit I cannot claim to be a Victorian (quite). I'm also happy just to Brit-pick if you have a regular beta. I'm on my second circuit of the 60 for 60 ACD drabbles, so I'm okay with canon as well.

I can beta with an emphasis on plot, character, SPAG, and some light Brit-picking.

I'd be happy to beta for SPAG and plot elements. I used to work editing translations and am particularly ready to help out any non-native English speakers who may be writing fic.
