Beta post

[charlies_dragon]

Whilst omgleveragebb is the place to go for any and all support whilst you're writing your BigBang, I thought that it would be a good idea to have a centralised place to offer your beta skills/request a beta.

There'll be two comment threads to this post, so please check carefully before commenting to one. If you wish to offer your beta-ing skills, then the "Offering my skills as a beta" comment thread is the one for you. If you're looking for someone to beta your fic, then the "Help! I need a beta" comment thread is where you need to go.

I hope this is helpful to you all. I'll be linking to it in the sidebar and over at omgleveragebb momentarily.

PLEASE NOTE: if you signed up to be a beta/request a beta this year on last years post, please copy & paste it into the apporpriate comment to this post.

Name: telaryn and hickumu (co-authored piece).
Contact Details: telaryn at gmail dot com
Type of Fic: BTVS/Leverage Crossover
Genre: Largely gen, with het overtones and a dash of femslash just to keep it interesting.
Timezone: Eastern

Fic will be ready for beta services on 9/30. We have a beta lined up already for characterization and Boston specific details, but I'd like a second pair of eyes for grammar and continuity issues. I'm estimating it's going to land between 55K and 60K in length by the time we're finished.
