Beta needed Fic just about ready!
Saturday, June 23, 2007

My old beta is MIA and I need a new one. I have a fic ready for Beta reading and I'd like to get it posted.

Here are a few of my quirks.

I usually have good ideas but sometimes they need refining. Most of my writing is non canon because I mainly write Mal's Ma and young Mal before the series. We know very little about how Mal Reynolds was brought up and I have definate ideas about it.

For some reason Meg Reynolds (my name for Mal's Ma)and her story have invaded my brain and I find it easy to write her. Maybe it's because I'm a mother myself. I don't know.

I have tried Mal/Inara and I find it very very hard to write Inara. The back and forth banter is difficult to capture and Inara is something of a mystery. If I knew why she decided to rent the shuttle maybe it would be easier.

I love run on sentences. I swear I'm trying to change but it's hard to be an editor of something you love.

I also have a tendancy to go off on tangents. This verse is just so interesting and I love to explore it. My mind just races and sometimes it ends up on the computer screen.

If think you could help me, please let me know. I have a short fic about 3/4 completed and I'm itching to get it out of my brain.
