I've decided to take the plunge and write something!!!!!! My piece is very early in its development, and I am looking for a beta who is comfortable with medical stuff. I want it to sound reasonable.

Please! A beta for Lady Rainbow! I am unable, but I want to read this chapter!
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

Well, I'm still new, so I hope I'm making this right.

I would need a beta/lector for my story. I'm nearly finished with the first draft and I would like some feadback.

Basic Informations
Genre: action, aventure, family, general, a bit humor, romance, virtual season?
Rating: PG-13 should do, since I use some hard words, but in general Americans are rather sensitive to curse language than Europeans, so I don't mean any insults, if you regard it as too low.
Spoiler: generally since beginning 3 season; I only mention special ones: deleted scenes of „One Night in Sickbay“ + „E²“ in this episode
Language: I tried to stick to American spelling as much as possible; please don't be too hard on a non-native speaker; concerning Trip: I refrained from too much accent, unless he gets emotional (therefore it's an instrument to underline his state of mind)

Concerning the general idea of this: Look at it like an possibility, how the series could/should have developed later on and therein TnT are an indispensable part from my point of view. So the other characters won't just be decoy, but TnT, their entanglements and some people in close connection to them, are the basis for the adventures Enterprise is going to face – but I don't want to hint too much.

There is and will be quite some A/T friendship. So no Archer bashing. But I plan to address the ambivalence of Archer big time. You can also say there's some A/H and T/M friendship. So to make it short: Gen with big parts T/T in it and I don't care if some say that doesn't make sense. :)

Summary: Starts two days after the last scene of Terra Prime, one daughter was lost and found, another one has to fear to lose her parents.

Someone interested?

OK Chapter 5 the rough draft is completed... Like usual I need help with spelling (because my spell checker refuses to work), grammar, and punctuation. I also wrote my first Archer scenes so commentary is appreciated. It's no secret I hate him, but it is a myth that everyone who hates him wants to use writing him as a way of metaphorical target practice. That's what discussing the episodes is for, not fanfic! :-p So if I let my venom show I want to know. WARNING: This is 34 pages long and 15,370 words long. And anyone who has helped me out before knows what a trial I am on short chapters. Any brave souls out there you have my gratitude.

A kind soul has offered to help me with my spelling. However, I still need help with punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure. Thanks in advance.

I need beta-readers for two short stories. One is my submission to the June 2010 Word Prompt (you can read it on my first post to that topic, can give you an idea about the task - I corrected a few mistakes I noticed by myself). But I feel that the story only can be completely understood by referencing a previous missing scene (from E2). The later is somewhat longer (~1300 words). Please, volunteer (for any, for both, for ever... :D )
