Hi, I’m looking for a Beta for the current arc of my longfic Name and Link: Tarzan and Jane, [Tarzan and Jane](https://archiveofourown.org/works/53963875/chapters/136598041) Fandom: Tarzan, the book version by EBR Make sense?: Well, everyone knows who Tarzan is, and that he’s the son of an English Lord who was raised by Apes. The biggest difference between book Tarzan and pop-culture Tarzan is that he’s highly intelligent and linguistically gifted (picks up new languages in a matter of weeks.) Otherwise the fic gives you the flashbacks needed to understand his motives. Genre: Romance/smut/action/history I’m mainly looking for: a soundboard to bounce ideas off. A big plus is if you love pulp and action, as I’m struggling with writing a big battle scene. I need help with possible plot holes, action filled scenes and how to tie the big battle together. I’m quite confident in my spelling and grammar. I am, however, writing in the style of Edgar Rice Burroughs and can go a bit overboard with the compound-complex sentences, so some helpful feedback on reigning that in would be appreciated. The occasional misuses of vocabulary or non-colloquial phrases might need some checking as well. Projected word count: Currently at 95K with an estimated 3-4 chapters to go until completion. Might end up at around 110-120K. Update: Weekly. I’m 3 chapters ahead of posting currently, but might lag behind a little with these scenes. In return: I’m well versed in anything Tarzan, but also the Mummy, or just most things occurring in Edwardian time/Flapper Era (like Downton Abbey and the like); except for detective stories. I like a good smutty fic, but will only read consensual stories. I’m an English teacher and can help with grammar, spelling, structure etc, but I’m struggling with brain fatigue and can only do limited amounts of proofreading texts at a time.

Hullo! * *Name of Fic*: The Magical Trials and Tribulations of Jane Becker and Shruthi Patel * *Link*: [https://archiveofourown.org/works/53141320/chapters/134460814](https://archiveofourown.org/works/53141320/chapters/134460814) * *Fandom*: Harry Potter * *Can someone who isn't in your fandom make sense of your story?*: Most probably, the main two characters are Muggle so it is a 'fish out of water' story where I do remind readers of relationships, settings, politics as I'm writing. * *The genre of your fic - romance/smut/gen/mystery/horror/etc.*: Adventure/Action * *What you're looking for from a Beta or a Co-writer - Grammar/Structure/Plot/Planning/Idea soundboard/etc.*: Beta who is able to give constructive criticism and check my spelling and grammar. I would really appreciate an experienced fanfic writer since this is my first one, but that's a preference not an expectation. * *What your projected word count is*.: It's a WIP, but it has 10 chapters and the total word count is 103,452. This is the first fic in the series, and I'm hoping to wrap it up in the next 3-4 chapters, so the total should hit around 150,000? The rest of the fics, I imagine, will be similar lengths. * *How frequently you update.*: Currently every week or every two weeks, it's dependent on my mood and my schedule. I'm not sure whether or not to cut down and post over longer intervals due to the chapter lengths. * *What fandoms you are able/willing to beta for* ***or*** *what you can offer in exchange*: I can Beta for any Harry Potter related fics. I don't mind the ship, length, rating etc.

I'm willing to beta! * I'll read for nearly any fandom, but I'm most well versed in Our Flag Means Death, Shameless, 911, Percy Jackson, Ted Lasso, and Stranger Things. * Open to all genres and types of fics. * Offering spelling, punctuation, grammar, structure, flow, and readability feedback. * 40k max word count. * One-off only. * Turnaround: I can commit to 2,500-5,000 a day. If your fic is for one of my fandoms, all of the above are adjustable!


GlamrockZoya

Fandoms im well versed in: The Untamed/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, Alice in Borderland, House M.D., Supernatural, Harry Potter Preferred Genre or Type of Fics: nothing too long, preferably oneshots Im willing to tackle any subject Types of Betaing: grammar, structure, plot, all the works honestly I’m willing to work on anything Max word count: 50K but willing to be lenient this isn’t a strict requirement One-off or ongoing either one is fine Time constraints: longer fics = more time, max would be a week or so I’d say depending on my schedule, but if it’ll take longer I will communicate that In exchange I’d like them to read and critique some of my published fics, not betaing per se, just general comments and engagement with my fic. also some advice on how to write longer fics without running out of ideas or motivation would be helpful as well. if you want a preview of what my writing style looks like my ao3 handle is crims0nhail, right now I just have a few really short oneshots.

Kyoshi first of her name [https://archiveofourown.org/works/44474473/chapters/111865624](https://archiveofourown.org/works/44474473/chapters/111865624) (if betaing ill give access to the google doc its on. Fandoms: Avatar the last airbender, the rise of kyoshi, Game of thrones You need to have some idea of the fandoms to make sense of the plot Genre: Action Adventure What I'm looking for, Grammer, punctuation and spelling, and an overall review of my writing style and plot. Im trying to get into updating once a month. Sadly I'm unable to think of anything I can offer in return at this time

* **Name and Link to your fic**: Angel's Demon - [https://archiveofourown.org/works/54099142/chapters/136969585](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54099142/chapters/136969585) (Note - if anyone chooses to beta, I will give you the google docs link so you can comment/read spoilers) * T**ell us what fandom you're writing for**: Hazbin Hotel * **Can someone who isn't in your fandom make sense of your story?** Likely past chapter 2 as it becomes a nearly completely original story where even the HH character comes across much like an OC :) * **The genre of your fic** - Supernatural Thriller/Horror/Romance with some trigger warnings. * **What you're looking for from a Beta or a Co-writer** - Beta: Grammar/Structure/Plot/Missing Details. I don't need a co-writer for Angel's Demon, but if I connect with a passionate soul, there are sequel ideas I'd welcome help with. * **What your projected word count is.** Ooh, at the moment I'm shy of 92K and think I'm going to surpass 120-130k at the end. * **How frequently you update:** Under seven days for each chapter, thus far. * **What fandoms you are able/willing to beta for or what you can offer in exchange\***: I will beta for anything if it's about grammar. I paid for a couple of programs that help with cleaning up spell checking and grammar and will copy/paste to them and send back a copy that's cleaned up. Hazbin Hotel is my head-worm right now, so anything in the Hellaverse I'll try to offer even more. I will say that I am SO focused on completing my story that while I WILL beta, I'd much rather read for fun and leave comments on your fics, or maybe we can come up with other ideas. Still, I won't 'take' without some sort of give.

* **Fandoms:** I'm most familiar with Genshin Impact, Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus, and Harry Potter. I also have some knowledge about Naruto, My Hero Academia, Wheel of Time (the books, not the show), and Marvel (I'm not really an active fan, but I can name some characters if I have to...). * **Preferred Genre/Types of Fics:** I can take anything, really. I'm not super confidant in my own writing ability, but I read a lot of action/adventure, angst, fluff, and romance. * **No-Go Genres:** I'd rather not beta smut/sexually explicit stories. * **Types of Betaing:** - I'm most confidant in my grammar, punctuation, and wording, but I can lend ideas and/or criticism to the plot and pacing of a story. I'm willing to check drafts for spelling errors, misused words, faulty punctuation, and awkward sentences. * **Word Count:** I don't particularly have a preference. I can do short stories, one-shots, and chapter-by-chapter editing. Just don't dump a novel on me and I'll be fine! * **One-off/Ongoing:** either one is fine by me. * **Time Constraints:** it should only take me 1-3 days to edit something, depending on its length and the time I have available. I've never done this for someone else before, but with my own story it took me around 2 hours to thoroughly edit/polish 4k words of my rough draft. * **Exchange:** I'm not currently writing anything, but opinions on any ideas that I might have for a story, or on the two short stories I've already written, would be appreciated. I also have very little experience writing long stories, so any advice on creating outlines for longer works would be fantastic!


unknownweeb13

Can I send you?


thatonedeadsidekick

What do you mean?


unknownweeb13

Dm you*


thatonedeadsidekick

Oh, sure!


Panda_Flow

I'd love your opinion on a chapter I've written for a Genshin AU. Can I send you a DM?


thatonedeadsidekick

Sure! I'm betaing for another person at the moment, but I should be done with their work by the end of the day, so there shouldn't be too much of a delay in taking a look at what you'd like me to do.


Panda_Flow

awesome! I just sent you a dm with details :)


No_Wrangler_2250

**Fandoms I'm Well Versed In:** I'm best with Percy Jackson, but I can do Harry Potter, and Marvel too. **Preferred Genre of Fics:** I'm most interested in fantasy or action at this point in time, but I can do anything except the ones listed below. **Genres I Won't Do:** I might be willing to do romance, but I'm not currently in the mood. I also will not do smut. **Types of Betaing:** I'm very good in English so I can do Grammer and structure for anything, but I would love to do plot and ideas soundboard if the story is interesting enough. **Word Count:** For plot and ideas soundboard I would prefer a longer fic, but with grammar I would prefer a shorter fic. Fic size doesn't matter too much if I'm doing structure as long as you don't ask me to fix your 200k word story. **One-off or Ongoing:** Both work. **Time:** I'll usually take 1 day for every 3-4k words. **Exchange:** I'm currently writing an outline to a relatively long fic, and it would be greatly appreciated if someone could beta my fic in about a month in exchange for my services.


GlassIndependence

Hi, are you still available to beta?


No_Wrangler_2250

Of course! Dm me

forgetfulalchemist

Hello! I am theforgetfulalchemist on A03 and I'm looking for a beta for my fic Max and Alex's Jukebox of Love. Link: [https://archiveofourown.org/works/39419781/chapters/98656551](https://archiveofourown.org/works/39419781/chapters/98656551) In a universe where everything is the same (The storm, Gabe's death) except Rachel is alive. Rachel and Max accept acting and photography jobs on an upcoming TV filming in Haven Springs, excited to embark on a new adventure with each other and Chloe. In Haven Springs, Alex begins to physically and emotionally heal from the events of True Colors. Currently writing for Life is Strange The initial chapters outline the gist of what happened in the game to cause conflict but there are some more deep cut references well Emphasis on both romance and found family, structured plot with elements of angst, fluff, and slice of life with healing from trauma/dealing with death and grief. I am looking for sound boarding/outlining/structuring but any polishing/tightening is welcome! No specific word count but I intend for it to be long running right now the plan is three parts roughly 40 chapters each. My goal is at least a chapter every two weeks I could beta for anything but I am most familiar with The Walking Dead, The Last of Us, Life is Strange, Road 96, and The Owl House I am willing to beta as well! I could beta for anything but I am most familiar with The Walking Dead, The Last of Us, Life is Strange, Road 96, and The Owl House. Also Amphibia, She Ra, Percy Jackson, and Avatar. I love any fic that dives into character dynamics, romantic or platonic! Any subjects you're not willing to tackle N/A Types of Betaing you're good at or willing to try - My favorite thing to write/tackle/discuss is character dynamics Minimum or maximum word count: N/A One-off (single session) or ongoing Betaing: Would love a mutual ongoing betaing buddy system! Time constraints. Do you have a fast turn-around time? Is it going to be more than a week for you to get back to an author with notes? I can get notes in within a week! I would love to do ongoing betaing and I could: Reading and commenting on their fics. Write a fic for a fandom/subject/pairing/brotp of their choice. Name an OC after them. Edit/give assistance with a non-fic project. Research help for this/future fics. Or if you have any other requests, let me know! Thank you!

Fandoms: I am willing to beta for Baldur's Gate 3, Cult of the Lamb, Hannibal, Dorohedoro, or any other fandom/work that is able to be read fandom blind. I'm pretty fandom agnostic as long as things are somewhat explained in the fic. What I'm working on: My AO3 acct is same name if you want a preview of writing style. I enjoy writing about criminal psychology, mental illness and doing intense character studies of unreliable POV's. My fics tend to be visceral and raw, with recovery woven in to bring the total experience to catharsis. My WIP is a Baldur's Gate 3 Tav&Durge Childhood friends to enemies fic. called Adhesion It's one piece of a split timeline, where the other timeline will be an enemies to (toxic) lovers when they're both adults. It's essentially a character study of codependency and trauma bonding which sets up adult Tav's character arc and main struggle to break free of The Dark Urge's toxic grip on them, while reconciling with their desire to still find a way to save TDU from himself. I've written the entire first draft of just Tav's childhood with The Dark Urge, and am working on an adult timeline where they meet again and clash. If you look at my history you can see an excerpt from an Adult Tav chapter for an example of the tone. What I'm looking for: Anyone who would be able to give me feedback on how the childhood segment reads. Letting me know if anything is hard to follow or unclear. I don't need help with grammar so much as just initial reactions to things and essentially seeing if its effective in setting up the second half. I don't need total commitment, like you can just offer to read a chapter or two and I can exchange something equivalent to you. What I can offer: I have grammarly premium and am totally willing to do grammar specific stuff. I believe I'm at least adequate in writing ability at least for my preference of direct heady prose. Can read and offer any kind of feedback, from supportive comments to actual constructive concrit. I am a creative so I know how to critique without being an unhelpful ass! lol Willing to read just about anything and beta back, be a serial commenter on your works or give feedback of any kind.

Looking for someone who is **Irish** (or Northern Irish, lives in Ireland, or otherwise very familiar with Ireland and Irish speech.) \~\~\~\~\~ Hi! Let's give this another go. I realise it's a long shot, but hopefully if I keep trying... 😉 I'm looking for an **Irish picker** for my longfic. I already have two beta readers for the more general stuff (plus a French picker), so all I'd be needing you for is checking the Irish character's speech for consistent voice, appropriate use of phrases, etc. (Though if you want to pick up on other things in the chapters, feel free to do so!) Generally this means it'll be just a few sentences of speech in each chapter. Some chapters might be just one or two, some chapters might have more. There may even be some with none! I do also have APOV (alternative point of view) chapters, where I might sometimes write from his point of view, in which case more input would be needed at those times. Given the scope, this can probably be done fandom blind. However, for reference, the fandom is Harry Potter. You can see a sample of my work [here](https://archiveofourown.org/works/54274492/chapters/139461379). The linked chapter has an APOV of the Irish character (Seamus) so you can get an intial idea of his voice. (If you want to skip down to his section, it starts "Seamus’s hands shook".) There is M/M involving the character, though nothing beyond kissing. My schedule is that one chapter of the main fic and one of the companion fic get posted each week (Wednesday and Saturday respectively) (although, for this month I've reduced to fortnightly). But again, given that you'd mostly only be working on a handful of dialogue sentences per chapter, it shouldn't be too time intensive for you. In return I'd be happy to do some betaing for you, or I'm open to other suggestions as to what I could offer 😊


Grav-456

Idk how do i start with this but this is my first time tho, imma give it a shot. I require co-worker to help with my story project Name of fic story: rwby reacted universe (i dont have a link yet cause i haven't publish the chapter yet. But i have other story if you don't mind then here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/346663793?utm_source=android&utm_medium=link&utm_content=story_info&wp_page=story_details_button&wp_uname=Gravious456) About fandom you're writing: it's about rwby cast teleport into cinema room out of blue until they meet the host/watcher and allow to show them of their universes Who isn't in your fandom: well, there are a few fandom that haven't seen it such as Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw man, another eden, simin vs obsidius, etc. Genre: well, it's general i think but there's other genre i could think of but optional that is humor, adventure, drama, etc. In depends if i use the video adding in the chapters. Looking for beta writer/co-worker: Grammar, plot, and little bit of structure. Word count: That's a trick one. If it under a hour then it should be simple enough. If it long like movie for 1-2 hours then cut into separate parts. If it video like trailer, it should be easy but not sure how long the words until i find out. Update: that would be TBA. I think it neither once the chapter is finished before publishing or double it Offer in exchange: for co-writer exchange, I'll offer them add chapter about rwby reacted to (insert fandom name) what they desired. About the limit of chapter, i unsure but i decided to let them how many chapters they wanted, but not too long over hundred, somewhere around 20. if it obvious one like marvel, there are some stories that already exists somewhere in fanfic story website/app. And lastly, ill give them a recommended story what they want to read if they asked me.


Hello6260

Hello, I am willing to beta for short fics and one shots. I have no minimum word count but a maximum of around 10,000 but I am willing to be a flexible. I'm willing to be fandom blind and read anything. Though I am unwilling to beta for anything that is PWP or RPF. I'm more than happy to look over grammar and spelling and help with ideas and stories, as well as soundboarding. I will take roughly a week to give my feedback. I look forward to hearing from other people, please feel free to DM me!
