Welcome here, Chelle-sama! :)
It's lovely to see new writers on this site. :) :)
And if JustTripn will edit your story... BE SURE! - your story will be unique! :D

BTW, JustTripn, your "E2 Series with MOVIE TRAILER" looks great! :D

It will be as unique as the author I am editing, no more no less. ;) You caught me, Asso, taking on more work, before finishing your story. OK, here I go . . .

And about the sig. He, he . . . thanks!

Thanks for the welcome! I probably won't be very active in the forums (I never am) but I already spend a lot of time here. I look forward to seeing your next fic!

I just got finished with I guess what a lot of people call a ficlit. It's only about three pages long in Times New Roman 12pt font. It's a pretty simple, light story. It's rated G. It's essentially a conversation between the crew about past experiances. Just PM me or something if you have the time to beta it. Thanks! :D

I need help.
Well, you know Jt edited kindly a lot of my stories, but she's too busy, now.
Linda is editing one of my stories, just now, and I don't want to give her a big deal of work.
Aquarius too is editing one of my stories, and I don't find the courage to asking her anything else, at this moment (I hope you understand me, Aquarius!)
But... well!... I wrote another story.
It's a romance. Absolutely NOT NC 17. It's long 6.081 words.
Does someone want to help me? :)

Was wondering if someone would like to take a look at "Sex, Lies, and Soundproofing Material" for me. My beta said he was available but I haven't heard much and I know he's got a lot of demands on his time. I figure even if he does get back to me, then I've just had two extra pairs of eyes go over it instead of one.

Just a heads-up: there is sexual content, but (hopefully) not what one would consider gratuitous pornography.

And it helps if you're the kind of person who can tell a girl what she needs to know and not necessarily what she wants to hear. :wink:

I looked at the stories you are working on, and I must say, you're a very busy bee, Asso. You know, Without end is a favorite of mine and it's shows you have grown in your writing abilities. So I am looking forward what you have to offer this time.
BTW, as for your request for a beta, my English isn't good enough. I need a beta myself to save me from the pits of the English language.
Hope you will find someone soon. :D

Oh, my! I missed this.

Sorry it took me so long to finish that piece for you, Asso. Having a second job has cut in to the "quiet time" I use for writing and betaing. I take editing and writing very seriously, so I like to have long stretches of time where I can give it my undivided attention.

I probably won't be able to beta as much for a while, because of the other job. Short pieces are okay, or longer ones by skilled writers who don't require much attention beyond a quick look by a second pair of eyes will probably be okay, but otherwise I'm probably going to have to give my own work priority during my dwindling free time. :(

I'd be happy to beta for anyone in need. Just let me know what kind of help you're looking for. I do well with spelling and grammar, if it's not my own work, and cannon/continuity if need be.

My software has an editing feature, so you can see my suggestions and accept or decline them.

Let me know if you'd like my help.

If anyone is willing, the latest installment of the "Sex, Lies..." series will be ready for betaing in a couple of days. Please PM me if you'd like to volunteer!

It probably goes without saying, but this piece is NC-17, just so you know what you're getting into. :wink:

Thanks.

Thanks, Dinah! I already found a sucker--er, volunteer--(just kidding! :lol: ) earlier this evening, but if something happens and she can't for whatever reason, I'll know who to ask. :D
