I'm as surprised as you are.

I've just finished the second draft of a fanfic and I'm looking for a beta or two. It's 22 000 words and concerns Giles during Season Seven of Buffy. I'd be most grateful.

I mean, assuming anyone is still reading this.

Hello to you

[indri]

Hello! It's been so long I'm surprised anyone is still reading. I hope you've been well.

I'd be happy to be one of your beta-readers, . . . as long as you don't need it turned around too quickly (I've got four different series I'm beta-reading on Twisting the Hellmouth right now, so my time for additional beta-reading is somewhat limited, for the time being).

Congratulations on having finished a second draft!

Oh, I'm not in a hurry. I started the fic five years ago!

I want to rewatch a couple of episodes tomorrow to check that the fic's consistent with them. If I do, I'll send you a copy.

Thank you so much for the offer.

The idea of a new Indri story fills me with joy. I would offer to beta for you, but I fear I'm just not good enough.

Actually, I'd be delighted to have your opinion. If you don't have the time or inclination to give a detailed response, I'd still be interested in your first impressions.

As I said to revdorothyl above, I think I need to rewatch a couple of episodes to convince myself it's ready to be beta'd.
