Searching for Beta  
Cross-Post at LJ

 I need a beta. And it is a huge request.

I am asking for a beta for a long multi-chaptered WIP. And by long and multi-chaptered, I mean currently 300,000-odd words, and 67 chapters (+1k reviews). It mainly needs Britpicked, with grammar and style corrections. I am good about spelling and punctuation, but there are bound to be errors there, also. I have no unrealistic expectations when it comes to the turnaround period - it is fine for a 4000 word chapter to take a fortnight.

It is a eventual slash, and is extremely slow-paced - though the slash has been foreshadowed, it has not actually come to pass yet. It has many non-sexual intimate moments. Teddy is in it. It is very angst-filled, though not graphically violent (there is violence). It is a slave-fic, but not your typical one, as you may discover.

It is called "Unwell". It is on fanfiction.net, though I hope to "catch up" on AdultFanfiction and HPFandom with the betaed chapters. The beta can do what works best for him/her; they can work their way from beginning to end, beta chapters before they come out, working on the rest in the meantime... They can choose to work only on the first forty chapters, and have me find someone else for the rest... I am not unaware that betaing is hard work, and that this is not everyone's cup of tea in fanfic.

Obviously, a beta will recieve credit in the first and final chapter of the story, by any name they choose. I can also link to their web address, should they so choose, whether it be a fanfic page, a LJ, etc. I am a capable beta, so if you would like me to beta something for you in return, I would gladly do so.

Please email me at socks4dobby1@yahoo.com or leave a comment, if you're interested. Or know who I can contact for a beta. I would really appreciate it.
