I have two Harry Potter stories that I have finished and one that is in the works. I would really love to have a beta for these because I can tell how much NeumeIndil has improved my LOTRs story with her excellent beta skills.

I have tried to find a beta on other sites, but it is either too complicated or I am not convinced that the betas available would help.

(Under the bio for one beta on Fanfiction.net the person listed they had excellent grammar skills using a sentence with an obvious grammatical error).

I am not trying to be picky, but I have found that the betas on this site have more maturity and experience. That is what my stories desperately need.

If anyone can either beta for me or give me some advice on how to find a good beta for Harry Potter stories, I would greatly appreciate it.

I can beta for story and grammar and flow and stuff, but I'm not really knowledgeable about HP canon, having only read the books once.

Perhaps I could share? I've never betaed HP before, but have read all the books so, as long as the canon isn't too stringent I'm sure I could cover that part.

I'd understand if you'd prefer to have just one beta do everything, however; that would be easier.
