Beta call!
I will cheerlead!
1. Fic, art, vid, podfic?
2. Any characters or genres you're particularly enthusiastic about.
3. Things outside your comfort zone (epic tragedy, kidfic, particular kinks, etc.).
4. How to reach you directly so the DSSS participant can protect his/her anonymity.
I can volunteer to beta!
1. Fic, art, vid, podfic?
2. Areas of expertise (characters, pairings, areas of special knowledge: i.e., Northern Canada, Chicago, RCMP, wolves, kids, particular kinks, etc.).
3. The kinds of betas you can do: (FIC: plot beta, spelling and grammar only, story edit, linne edit; ART: proportion/scale/color beta; VID: clip or throughline beta; PODFIC: pronunciation, pacing beta.)
4. Things outside your comfort zone (epic tragedy, kidfic, character death, particular kinks, etc.).
5. How to reach you directly so the DSSS participant can protect his/her anonymity.
For participants:
We want you to have all the support you need! Please make use of cheerleaders and betas to help keep your creative process on track and make sure your gift is the best it can be. If you find you need a beta with specialized knowledge and none of the volunteers in the comments below are a good fit, please email the mods and we'll post a SEEKRIT beta request on your behalf.
Remember, DON'T ASK YOUR RECIPIENT TO BE YOUR BETA OR CHEERLEADER, or it will ruin the surprise!
: )
If you are a participant whose AO3 username is different from your DW/LJ username, please clarify who you are in your comment so no one mistakenly asks you to cheer/beta your own gift!
Any questions? Email your friendly neighborhood mods at dsss.admin@gmail.com -- we will gladly help you out.

1. Fic, art, & vids
2. Any characters or genres, but especially Fraser/Kowalski, Vecchio, Frannie, Dief, & Thatcher. Genre-wise, anything goes but I'm a sucker for angst, angst with a happy ending, BDSM, & I even like darkfic.
3. The only stuff I can't do is non-canonical animal cruelty, mpreg, & scat. Everything else is fine. I'm not into non-canonical kidfic, but I can read it, albeit unenthusiastically.

I can be a beta. I can beta both UK and US English and can check flow, plot, grammar, spelling and general characterisations.
Pretty happy to beta any writing, any characters.
I also make a great cheerleader for everything.
I am in the UK timezone.
Can email me

Beta offer
Areas of expertise: medicine and psychology, reasonable canon knowledge and access to the transcripts, writing, art.
For fic: SPAG, catching plot holes or structural issues, language flow.
For art: feedback about drawing, value, colour, impact.
For podfic: catching glitches or errors, repetitions etc.
I don't have any real triggers or squicks, will read any genre or pairing. Not mad keen on major character death, horror or partner infidelity but I'd put up with it if betaing. Any rating is okay.
