Hallo:)

Am in need of a beta to help me complete the last 4-5 chapters of Diamond In The Storm. This is a Pip & Diamond fic, post-Quest, action/romance/angst monster, with various hobbit cameos and a glimpse or two of Rangers. Check the story to see if you can bear to work with it.

What do I need?
-continuity & readability check
-once over to catch spellchecker proof goofs
-OOC convo/action
- non-hobbit cannon goofs (for chapters involving the Rangers)

Also, please no under 18s, though I know you guys are about. One of these goes into NC17, and I'm somebody's mom, so I'm going to honor yours.

Thanks!

SilverMoonLady

TY for all the honoring, but unfortunatly Sil, if we was under 18, you wouldn't know it. I think we're all very mature people here, exept me. I'm nutty as a fruit cake, but atleast I'm almost twenty-one!!! Lol that means you'll probably see me at a bar on Dec. 7th. No I'm only joking. I always told my mom that if I didn't start drinking, I'd be less likely to want to finish. Heh, beer anyone?

Although the Internet is anonymous I would hope that anyone who wasn't 18 would respect her wishes and not offer to beta read her story. Honesty is always the best policy in life and online as well Fallen angel

Silvermoonlady - I would be interested in taking a gander at your story, but I am concerned that I would not be able to do justice to a Hobbit fic, since that is not my major area of knowledge Crying or Very sad However please do keep me in my mind if you are unable to find anyone and need someone to lend a hand. If there is one thing that I love it is angst - lots of juicy angst. And the thought of Pip angst does sound interesting Wink

Well, Sam, as Sind mentioned, while the internet is indeed anonymous, I would hope we can all respect each other enough to be honest.. and you are indeed as nutty as a fruit-cake! Very Happy Should 21 find you in a boozing mood, just bring a friend so you see the dawn at home rather than the park...Smile

Sind, I'd be both pleased and honored if you would take a gander at my stuff:) Since I am neurotic in my research, hobbit-cannon isn't really an issue; good writing is what needs work and I know you know what that looks like! Smile
Take a look at Diamond, tell me if you're still interested; I'll keep the thread open until I hear a definitive from someone:)

Well I took a gander and yes I would be interested in beta reading the remaining chapters for you. Just send me a PM and we will figure out the logistics Very Happy
