I wanna beta-read your fanfic...

Seriously. Let me beta-read your fic. I'm not asking anything for it or expecting anything from you in return - I'm just a lady with good grammar, good reading comprehension, and a big vocabulary, who has read a lot of fan fiction and wants to support the writers' community.

I can proofread English-language fics or individual chapters of < 5k words for nearly any fandom. This means that I will review for grammar, spelling, and readability, but I may not be familiar with the original source material.

If I'm familiar with the source material, I can also give you notes on characterization, plot, and canonicity, but only if you want them.

"Why am I doing this?", you might be asking. Mainly, it's because I see far too many heartbreaking "Sorry, I suck at writing! 😩" authors' notes and I want to be a non-AI resource for authors who are anxious or feeling a lack of confidence in their writing skills. Also, I have no impulse or desire to write my own fics, but I still want to contribute in some way.

I'll read stories of any rating, but I have a few hard no's when it comes to proofreading smut (no acts involving minors, no incest, no scat/urine, no emetophilia); that said, I'm not here to judge you or yuck your yum.

But yeah, send me an ask or DM. I try not to overpromise and underdeliver, so there might be times when requests are closed, depending on my schedule. I'm not sure how many takers I'll have, so I can't promise anything about turnaround time once I have your draft, but I'm shooting for 48-72 hours.

And, as always...

My fellow sci-fi nerd friend's little one just turned one and can have stuffies in bed with him now, so I crocheted him a Rocky to watch him sleep. 😊

Credit for the pattern goes to RoseberryLandArts on Etsy

I couldn't demonstrate here, but the cutest detail about the pattern is that he's designed to only be able to give a thumbs down. 😁👎🏼

I attempted to create some "etchings" on him - he's got my crude attempt at the Petrova line symbol, a sigil I made to represent Adrian, and a very rough IDIC symbol (not visible) as a nod to Vulcan, their neighbor in the 40 Eridani system, plus that little washboard thingy he has on one of his arms. The pattern calls for a super bulky yarn (Bernat Blanket yarn is what I used here and it's perfect for this) and some scrap dark brown and teal worsted yarn for details.

the part of adulthood that no one ever warns you about is the amount of surfaces you need to acquire to put your things and trinkets on

The juxtaposition of these tweets...

[staticbluue]

“People should pass a test before being allowed to have kids.” “Isn’t it scary how white people have this inborn capacity for evil?” “I’ll never pass because males and females have different skull shapes.” “Autistic people have a stronger sense of justice than anyone else.” “I don’t want AMABs in my space because they’re dangerous.” “You shouldn’t have access to hormones if you dress like THAT.” “Anyone who does something that awful isn’t human.” “Some people really shouldn’t be allowed to vote.”

This is eugenics. This is phrenology. THIS IS NAZI SHIT, YOU ARE A LEFTIST BUYING INTO NAZI SHIT. YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO NAZI SHIT.

Hamlet adaptation where Hamlet is a vlogger and all his soliloquies are breakdowns he uploads to YouTube

… I am unironically here for this

[oldfilmsflicker]

this is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life

[kabesattic]

This is - legitimately - my favourite delivery of Shakespeare I have EVER seen (and I have seen some good-ass productions yo, in the Globe Theatre itself even). Like seriously, even though the words are unchanged, he’s stripped away ALL of the archaic pretense and assumed grandeur of ~presenting the bard~ that makes even the most wildly talented of actors and innovative of productions inherently inaccessible to a modern audience. Like, they’re still great, they can still communicate the message and (some) of the nuance, but they’re still always a step removed from being identifiable to any viewer’s lived experience. They’re still always reciting 15th century poetry. But this guy? This guy is like, screw iambic pentameter, to hell with being precious about the material, HOW WOULD AN ACTUAL PERSON SAY THIS SHIT?

Like this. And it’s beautiful. It’s beautiful to hear a soliloquy I loved so much already, and have it come to life in a way it never, ever, did before. I feel like I grasp his motivations, his twists and turns, no longer on an academic level but on a visceral, instinctive one. Because he’s presenting his mental and emotional journey in a way that speaks honestly, like a real person.

So yeah, this shit post? I love it. Deeply and sincerely.
