beta request

[vaznetti]

I'm looking for a beta for a Supernatural story, John-centric. It's about 1500 words, set mid-season 1, and I'm not sure whether it's a story or just the sketch of story (or possibly, a dumb idea I should put away for a while).

And yes, the first actual story I write in this fandom is all about the guy half the fandom really hates. Everyone who is surprised by this, raise your hands. ::looks around:: Yeah. I thought so.

I might not be able to truly dig into it until tonight, so being where/when you are, you're unlikely to get it back until tomorrow, but send it on over. username at gmail. And let me know how deep, i.e., if you want look-over, poking, nitpicky, whatever.

[vaznetti]

I'll send it on to you. It's one of those, "wrote it in a day, don't know what it is" kind of deals, so whatever advice you can give will be helpful.

Thanks a lot.

If you want a second look-over, I'd be happy to help.

[vaznetti]

That would be great! Thanks.

Happy to be the third pair of eyes! Not that I know a single thing about canon, but, okay, I'm just on the enthusiasm-for-writing bandwagon.

[vaznetti]

Thanks! I think I'm set, since I'll probably need at least another draft on this thing. And, you know, a real ending.

[veejane.livejournal.com]

Cool. Just know, as usual, that your mind and my mind are of like mind, where "half the fandom hates him" characters.

[vaznetti]

Yay for the like mind, I guess. Much-hated characters deserve affection as well. Or at least, guarded respect.

I'm surprised! Oh, wait. I take it back.

Good that you're inspired to write, though. Creative inspiration is a good thing.

[vaznetti]

It's like a curse. I swear, it's like a curse.

But yes, writing is good.

I'm always happy to look at any Supernatural stuff short of nc17 brother-lovin, which ain't my cup of tea. Drop me a line if you need help ever; shutupmulder at yahoo.

[vaznetti]

Thanks for the offer -- I think I'm set, but I might keep you in mind if this needs more drafts. Which it probably will.

[zarahemla.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, it's all good. Or if you can't think of anyone for future projects. :D

[vaznetti]

Believe me, the story with Dean and Krycek (aka the story that slash forgot, and what is wrong with me, anyway?) has your name on it. Should I ever finish it.

I've never beta'd fanfic but I've sat through more writing workshops than anyone should. If you're feeling daring, please add me to the list.

[vaznetti]

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.
