 Posted: Wed Jan 05, 2005 11:23 am Post subject: I need a beta for stories containing SMUT hehe |
 |
|
I have written a ton of stories (about 10) that I am now going back to revamp them because I have been told my language is too modern. I have no problem with plot and I have been able to churn them out because of that. But when I am now coming back to revamp them for a more quality written story, I see areas that are too modern. BUT I need someone else to Beta them.
My stories all contain smut so I would need someone willing to beta that as well. Don't want to have a character doing something that is physically impossible or would not have been done in middle earth. LOL Like I cannot see anyone in to dom/submissive but hey, it's possible. I only have two story that is Non Consensual but one is being beta'd by someone else. (and no, none of the main characters are doing the N/C - the OC is kidnapped by Easterlings). The other one is so darn smutty, I don't think I would put it on this site (currently on another adult site) It was good in theory but it ended up being an orgy fest!!
ANYHOO, if anyone is interested in de-modernizing my stories please let me know. I do not do canon or LACE stuff but AU and all have female OCs.

Alassante:
Have you had any responses on a BETA to "demodernize" your stories? I have found that reading 19th century erotica adds to your vocabulary of "antique" sexual phrases, and gives ones writing a Tolkienian flavour!

Could you clarify? Do you want someone to help you spot the modern bits or just proof them once you've modified them.
I'd like to help ... but time is short for me. I could do one, at least. You're not in any hurry, right?

Right now I am switching back and forth between three stories - I get frustrated doing editing over and over again on the same story so I switch. I usually do 1-2 chapters at a time. If I do more the later chapters end up sucking wind because I have lost my focus. So no, I am not in a hurry and I would only do 1-2 at a time.

You had your one. And it wasn't supposed to be that graphic until you added to it little missy! That is it. No more rape scenes ever.

I have written some stories, just not in english (Severus that falls in love with a muggle (Caitlin) and everything takes place in the worst time to fall in love... pretty mary sue-ishi actually:P)
I am pretty good to feel what other feels and I am pretty good to figure out what other people think and feel... which is a little bit scary:/
but if you want, I can try to do my best to Beta them... it sounds exiting...
