Beta Readers Post 2023

[karios]

Looking for someone familiar with your Yuletide canon and willing to help check your story? Wondering if you're getting the details right about your story's setting, the spelling of a line in another language, or the work your characters do? The beta spreadsheet is here for you.

If you're interested in beta-reading somebody else's story, fill out the form HERE. It will ask about what fandoms you are willing to beta for, as well as other kinds of expertise you're willing to offer. Note that you will need to enter an email address, which will be visible to other users. After you've filled out the form, you'll get an email containing your responses and a link you can use to edit your answers.

If you need a beta, check the spreadsheet HERE. All responses will be visible in the tab "Form Responses 1." Other tabs will be populated as Arithanas is able to update, to make them easier to find. Find someone offering the kind of help you need (make sure it's not your recipient!) and contact them directly. If no one is offering what you need, you can also comment (anonymously) on this post to see if someone can help, or you can sign onto the Yuletide Discord and contact a hippo.

If you have any questions, comment on this post or email arithanas@hotmail.com who is coordinating this year.

Hello... Thank you very much for this. While I checked the spreadsheet and saw a few people willing to beta in any fandom, unfortunately no one has listed the fandom in which I wrote... & I really would like to be sure I got the characters' voices.

If anyone can beta a 9,700 pre-poly Victor/Ilsa/Rick Casablanca fic, I can be reached at vgeovanis@hotmail.com

hey, quick question: what's the best way to add more fandoms to your own beta form? i've got a few more fandoms i'd be comfortable with betaing now than when i first filled the form because i've been reading in my spare time and i'm already on the spreadsheet under "timkon"/edmundwitherby @ gmail. thanks a ton!

You can email your updated list to arithanas@hotmail.com and Arithanas should be able to edit them in for you. In the meantime you could include them in a comment here if you like.
