Beta Readers: offering to be one, finding one

[kate_nepveu]

Here is an unofficial form to offer to be a beta, for spelling, punctuation, and grammar (SPAG) only; non-English languages; areas of expertise; and/or specific fandoms. Include a machine-readable email address and you'll get a copy of your answers and the link to edit your responses in a handy reference email.

Here is the spreadsheet where responses are collected and, when time permits, manually indexed.

(If anyone would like to help with the indexing, let me know; it's just some copy-pasting!)

If you need a beta for a fandom or a topic that isn't on the spreadsheet yet, you can (1) try the IRC chat (less populated lately, I'm told) or the Discord server; (2) post here ANONYMOUSLY to say "I could really use a beta about X!" and see if anyone adds something to the spreadsheet or comments here to give your their contact information.

Edit: if you also want to post some/all of the information you submit to the spreadsheet, here in the comments, feel free! Or just post here in the comments, up to you, but I will not be transferring that information over to the sortable spreadsheet.

Let me know if you have any questions!

(I no longer post to LJ, if someone wants to post a link there, feel free.)

Drop me an email (isiscolo@gmail.com) and include the story length, rating, and any pairings, as well as your recip's AO3 name - I'm a regular hippo, and I'll put this in the want-ads on the Yuletide Discord server. If anyone bites I will connect you.
