I would be willing to take a look at it. I'm kinda crazy about characterization, though, just a warning. lol If it's *consistent* then that's ok. I'll live with it.

Now who's rambling? Anyway, far as the episodes, I would try either iTunes if you can afford it (1.99each, I think, US) or I have had luck finding them on usenet. You would have to pay for an account to download, but then you could get so much more besides that (I get music, movies, etc) for around $10 a month. 

Some people might have other ideas. I know there were some people in the Buffy fandom who were doing sales of VCR tapes (I got season 2 that way) but that's *so* last century. :)

Hi,

After not writting for a long time I started with a new story. I'm
not a native speaker of English and this will be the second story I
write in this language. Though I have some knowledge on how to write
in English, it may not be good... but I'm sure you'll have no
problems understanding anything.

It's a GEN story. For now, only the prologue is ready, but I'm
almost finishing the first chapter. It starts with the SG 1, but it
will soon be a crossover between SG and SGA. Its an AU.

I need grammatical and spelling correction and of course any other
commentaries will be appreciated. I must warn you, I've only seen
two episodes of the first season and a few of the last of Stargate
SG 1, so the characters may be off character. If anyone knows where
I can watch the serie?

Well, I'm getting off topic now. To sum up, GEN story, crossover
eventually), native Spanish speaker, grammatical and spelling
correction.. . Did I forget anything? If so please ask.

Let me know if you are interested.. . I promise not to disapear again
(like I did with my first story. It's just that my muse abandoned
that story to start this one instead)

Kisses,

Magdalena

You can get all of the episodes from www.mininova.com just type in the episode code
 
Stargate Atlantis S01E01 = Rising Pt.1 etc. and its all free just download the free torrent Azureus, uTorrent or Bitcomet and then open the torrent file. If you have a good connection it should download fairly quickly also stick to trusted sources or you could get fake files from porn uploaders. [eztv] are the most reliable uploaders out there.

You normally send your story offlist, directly to the person who has
offered to beta for you, rather than to the list directly.

I was wondering if someone would mind doing a quick beta on a 500 work ficlet.  This is for the Last Fiction Writer Standing challenge on LJ, so the rules are pretty restrictive.  I need someone to read for content more than spelling, punctuation and such.  Its G and Gen, no offensive material whatsoever.

Hey there. I've never posted in this fandom before, and I need a beta
to check over my story. First off, no kiddies. It's definitely M
and/or NC-17, and since it's McShep, it's also m/m. The story takes
place in season 4 after Miller's Crossing and before Quarantine. It's
called "The Legend of Kirk" and can be described thusly:

Colonel Sheppard really isn't Captain Kirk, and Rodney knows it, so
why perpetuate the myth?

Story's a little over 5,000 words, and I'd especially like to see if
others think it's in character. I'm definitely open to suggestions and
ideas from whoever's willing to check it out.

Thanks a lot,

Sarah

This is the kind of beta relationship I like to have. :)

If no one has offered yet, could you give me an idea how many (if more than 1) stories you've written, and approximate word count/page count.

Thanks! If you want to send over something for me to see also, that's fine.

joec_mn
Send Email Send Email
 
Hi. I am first and foremost on the lookout for a Beta that can help me
with all the basics: spelling, punctuation, grammar and the likes thereof.

I would absolutely love to have a beta that could give me constructive
criticism, their view on my characterization, a bit of help with the
science in the story, the flow of the story and any plot holes that
might arise. As I said, I would love to have all of the above, but I
might just be greedy. :)

Well then, back to the story.

I am currently working on my first Stargate fiction, ever, and I am a
bit nervous that I might botch it up horribly, but here I go:

The story, at this point, involves mpreg, but I might change that part
later if I find that it does not fit with the story further on.

After being trapped with Carson in an ancient machine, Rodney finds
himself pregnant. throughout the story they must learn to cope with
the new life-altering situation they have been put in

The story will move slowly forward, establishing the friendship as a
stable ground before moving on towards any kind of romantic
relationship between the two.

(I am quite sick of the "wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am" stories where they
all jump from friends to lovers in the space of six hundred words or
less.)

There will be much uncertainties and probably some angst and a bit of
morality issues thrown into the mix. I have to say that the angst
level will be kept at a moderate, but since some people have a low
angst-toleration I can't promise if they will find it too much or not.
I am not a big fan of angst, but I write it when the story demands it.

I should probably state the ratings, too. I have plans to write sex in
this story, but not for many chapters to come. It will mostly be at a
PG-13 level, with a few well-placed curses, but the overall rating
will be NC-17.

Pairing is, of course, Beckett/McKay.

Warnings include M-preg, angst, gay sex, cursing, AU (Beckett never
died in 'Sunday'), possible spoilers for whole series (probably just a
mentioning or two).

Number of chapters. No idea. Probably around 10/15. Will change as the
story progresses.

Additional knowledge: I am not a native English-speaker...

Sincerely
Joe

Hi  sorry  i  was  supposed  to  put  certain  things  in  the
heading  and  here. I had  to  write a story for a secret Santa  thing
  and  I am  a  first  time  ever  writer  not really comfortable
writing slash , enjoy reading  very  mild slash, but  think  I did  ok
  with  the  implications  part.

Need  help  with  spelling  and  grammar  ,  I  have  NO  idea  how
this  works  but  I thought  I'd  put  the  details  in a  post ,
think  I  did  it  right  this  time !!

thank  you  Mare

Hiya :)

Sorry on the last minute rush, but my regular beta as emergency rl
issues. Anyhoo, I need a beta that can do a quick turnaround for a
snip--its 652-word ct, Lorne/Sheppard pre-slash. I'd need it back no
later than the 16th.

I am also working on 2 other SGA (Lorne centric pieces) that I'll need
to post 24/25 respectfully, and no, neither is done at the moment, but
anyone who does have time & might be interested, I'd love the help :)

You can reply here, or privately at: denyce36(at)yahoo(dot)com

Thank you in advance!!
Denyce~~

This is the last chapter of a story I've been working on forever and I
need someone to go over and check for the usual, grammer and spelling
errors and suggestions are always good.  The overall rating for the
story is PG-13 for a lot of angst.

The story is Lessons and is on Wraithbait.

If interested, please let me know and I'll email the story to you.

Hiya,

I need a beta reader for a McShep first time episode tag to
'Travellers'. It's approx. 8240 words and I'd really like someone with
good grammar skills to give it a once over. I'm pretty easy to get along
with and don't tend to sulk, if someone tells me I made a mistake
somewhere. If I didn't want to know where I went wrong, I wouldn't
bother to ask for your help ;-)

Also, if someone, who doesn't absolutely loathe the Jennifer/Rodney
relationship reads this; I could need a bit of help with another story
that starts out as McKay/Keller and turns into McShep. Since no one I
know seems approachable when it  comes to  that  pairing, I'd really,
really appreciate any offersof help for that one as well.

Thank you kindly in advance
Reualnn

Fic is 1600 words, and not really very graphic. It's not a happy fic,
but it isn't very disturbing, either. Kind of sad.

It's Ronon/OFC - but NOT a Mary Sue! At least I don't think so - these
things are why betas are good to have.

I have a feeling it could use some re-writing, but it's too fresh for
me to tell which bits and how. Also, English is not my first language,
so it probably needs a check.

Also, I'm wondering what kind of subtext a reader would get from this fic.


I can take all the constructive abuse you want to dish out.

In the next day or two I'm going to be looking for a beta for a short (around 1200 words) story intended
for the SGA farewell ficathon over at LJ.  It's gen and Carson centric.  I don't need a spelling,
punctuation, grammar beta as much as I need a 'test the idea, plot, characterization, impact' beta. 

If anyone is interested, drop me a line.  The final story is due Feb 28 through March 3.  This is
actually the second story I'm writing, since the first attempt got waylaid by another ficathon.

My best friend has just started a new site and it is on a very important idea.

It is on personal safety and how we can be more aware of our suroundings and the
dangers around us.

The point of the group is to share storiess of events that have taught you to be
more aware of the dangers around you in the hopes that it will save someone else
from going through it.

This goes from noticing a person following you or acting strangely who may be up
to no good, to hidden dangers to our children. From a toy that you learned the
hard way as not being safe of a new gadget that saved a life or makes keeping
your child safer.

Please check out the site and share any stories you can think of. Remember ...
your story may save a life or prevent an unnessesary injure just by you sharing.

PLEASE share this site.

Thank You,
Crow

Looking for a beta to focus mainly on:
- characterisation
- references (= "historic" correctness)
- immersion (descriptions, length etc.)

Many thanks in advance!!!

Hi!
I'm looking for a new beta reader(English mother-tongue speaker), because my
former beta reader now focuses on a new fandom.
I already published nine stories (mash4077 -> wraithbait, sga4077 ->
fanfiction.net). Some are humour stories, other are serious ones.
Not being a native speaker, my main problems are punctuation, grammar and tense,
and sometimes the phrasing. But I think that this sounds worse than it is.

My new story is less than 5,000 words and Sheppard's POV. He visits McKay in a
psychiatry and remembers about what had happened. Dr Keller died before the
events of the story occur (I'm sorry, I never planned to write a character death
story). It takes place after season five.
If you are able to understand German you can read the story at fanfiction.net
(title: In der Psychiatrie) and see if you like it.

I'm using Microsoft Word 2000 (word.doc).

Though I'm writing and planning other stories I already would be glad to find a
beta reader for this story only. (But I won't mind if you are interested in beta
reading other stories, too.)

One thing I should also mention: If I'm not responding immediately to your mail,
it's not because I'm impolite. I just don't have internet at home, but I'm
regularly online at least once a week.

I'm looking forward for a positive response.
Best wishes,
Amrei

I would be happy to beta and can speak a little German (though not so good at
reading).  Let me know if you still need someone.
