That which created me played a cosmic joke on me. I have a mind full of ideas but was until recently under the impression that my grammar was the lady wed to my grandpar. Where spelling is concerned "hukt on foniks did not werk so well fur me."
I would also welcome such constructive critique as " character 'a' requires more introduction" or " your chapter, paragraph etc. is too long or short." I will listen to comments to the effect that my verbage is replete with stinkiosity so long as one is kind in the saying of it. I will drool and slobber with undying joy over any praise I recieve.

 Sounds like a fun job--there would certainly be no lack of cleverness if your story reads like this post. 
Tell us what sort of story you need beta'd. Elf/Hobbit/Man/Dwarf? Which age? AU? Warnings? Length? That sort of thing.

 First allow me to extend my profuse thanks for your compliment.

In answer to your questions: The story takes place in the third age around 2758. AU???? I will cover that if and when I discover what it is and please pardon my ignorance on that point. My characters elf /mortal/ orc have thus far survived a prologue and first chapter each of about 500 words in length. There will be some NC17 content or at least the vague hinting of such. It will most likely not take place between the main characters but as a secondary story plot to provide background. I expect you will understand when I say that my characters have not yet told me how or when the story ends.
It is my hope that you will not think me too insane but if you do, will you  please reserve the padded cell with a view for me?
