Recs and beta request

[cicer]

Pray Your Gods by ciceqi. More tentacle fic! Whee!

About a week ago, louiselux asked for fic, and people answered. Lots of excellent stuff in there! Wow!

More Nii/Sanzo from mistressrenet. Nngh.

Excellent manga review from telophase, part one and part two. See if you can guess the Saiyuki characters by thier outlines!

Really gut-punching fic based on the recent virgin!Sanzo discussions by cephy. Yow. Very powerful.

Blood to Blood to Blood, by harukami. Oh, ow. This one will have you gaping at the computer screen. It's so them.

Uncrossed Wires by devikun. Holy crap, this is awesome. Excellent writing, very unique idea, and a very clever method of scene-switching. Fantastic.

The Hogwarts Dance Team. I know this has been linked to hell and back. Hush. It's awesome. Go watch. My life is so much better for having seen it.

karose did fandom playing cards! Squee! And my little portrait is so darn cute I just about died. Thank you so much, karose!

Now for a Fearsome Beta Request

So, remember that uber-long Hakkai/Gojyo epic I wrote before NaNoWriMo? Well, it's all typed up and in the process of being edited, and I'd like to get it out in the next couple weeks. But because of the sheer length of the darn thing, I'm wary of putting it up without someone doing a beta job. Still, because of the length I'm also afraid to ask anybody to do it! It's around 12,000 words, and it's broken up into about six nice, bite-sized chapters, and if I could bribe/coerce one or more of you into giving it a quick lookover (doesn't have to be anything in-depth, just a quick glance for glaring typos or OOCness or the like) that would be totally awesome. So, um, anyone wanna give me a hand? I'll give you cookies...

Did somebody say "85 Epic"?? I'll put my hand up for a beta job if you like? It'll make good reading on the plane on Boxing day... ;)

Whee, thank you! Could I send you the first half or so in a couple days?

[devikun.livejournal.com]

Sure! I await it eagerly!! ^^

[devikun.livejournal.com]

err. ah but you'd be needing an email address right? Just send it to my username LJ email devikun at livejournal dot com yeh?

[cicer.livejournal.com]

Will do. I'll probably send the first half off tomorrow. Thank a bunch!

[wk-recomend.livejournal.com]

Sure. You can e-mail it to me, I'd be happy to look at it for you.

I'll already snagged devikun for the first half, but perhaps you'd be willing to look over the second half? The thing's so darned long I feel like it might require two betas so I don't overwhelm one person!

[wk-recomend.livejournal.com]

Sounds good to me. ^_^ Do you still have my e-mail or do you need it again?

D

[cicer.livejournal.com]

Still got it! Thanks! Shall I send you the first half also, just so you can familiarize yourself with the whole story?

[wk-recomend.livejournal.com]

Hee...damned lack of comment notifications...grrr......

Um, yes. I can take all of the fic or I can just take what you want me to go over. Whichever works best for you. It might help, though, if I see the whole thing, just for consistancy sakes, and so I don't ask stupid questions. ^_^

I look forward to seeing it.

Hee! I think we're all a little disabled by the lack of comment notifications. *g*

I'll send you the whole thing, I think, and just mark the parts I want you to look over. I'll probably get it to you within a week or so, okay? I need to finish my own first round of editing. :) I'll send it by Monday, if all goes well. Thanks again!

[wk-recomend.livejournal.com]

Sounds wonderful to me. ^_^
