Type of Fanwork: Fan Labour (Beta Service)
General likes: crossovers, romance, worldbuilding, hurt/comfort, complex family relationships, fluff, slice of life, action/adventure, fantasy, nonlinear storytelling, angst, character study, alternate universe (both canon divergence AUs and setting AUs are interesting to me), revenge, loyalty, politics

Fandom(s) / Character(s) and Pairing(s): I will happily beta read gen, poly, f/f, f/m, or m/m for any of the following fandoms: Anne of Green Gables (or any book by L.M. Montgomery), Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis, Crazy Rich Asians (movie & book series), Dublin Murder Squad (books & tv), The Godfather (movies & book), Jack Reacher (movies & books), Little Women (2019 or book series), Peaky Blinders (TV), To All The Boys I've Loved Before (movies), War & Peace - Tolstoy
Ratings I am willing to do: G, Teen, Mature, Explicit
Notes: Offering beta reading, help with characterization, flow, plotting, detailed SPaG [+ explanations!] & more! I will beta 1k words for every $2 you donate, with a ceiling at 100k words. (That said, if you've got a 130k fic, come talk to me about it beforehand & we'll see). I made the minimum bid $30 because I'm looking to beta longfic.

In terms of beta style, I'm flexible. I linked 3 very different fics that I've beta read (one humor/romance/crackfic, one smut, one God-POV tragic romance) to show that I Have The Range. I can suggest grammar edits with or without explanations of why they're necessary. I've beta read for ESL writers before and I'm happy to do it again. I can get deep into discussion about characterization or I can set that aside to help you execute your particular vision. I can be the cheerleader screaming encouragement, the editor absolutely blanketing your pages in red, or both. Whatever works for you. I want it to be a good experience for both of us, and I want you to publish something that you're proud of.

Here's some random information about the cultural knowledge/experiences I have that may be helpful to you. My English instincts are American (I tend to choose color over colour, etc). I know a fair bit about taking care of babies and toddlers (wahey, kidfic!), US national politics, small college-in-the-middle-of-a-cornfield life, being raised (& closeted) in an evangelical protestant church, and acting as caretaker to a seriously ill person. Can sensitivity read for Chinese diaspora characters, but probably only if they're third-generation or onward, due to my lack of language skills. I've also kept my eye on conversations about Asian stereotypes and depictions of Asians in US media for some time now. Maybe some of that is of use to you! But maybe it isn't. Maybe your fic is a War of the Roses AU with dragons, or a story about a post-apocalyptic sedoretu. In that case, we'll still have a grand time. I genuinely enjoy editing and I've got semi-legal access to JSTOR just in case of emergencies. ;) If you've got any additional questions, let me know!
Minimum Starting Bid: $30
Minimum Bid Increment: $2
