Finding a Beta for an anonymous fest can be difficult. You can't give away too many details, otherwise it's clear which work is yours - and what if your recipient offers to beta for you?
So, we're creating a list of potential art and writing betas, and that can include you!
If you want to beta: Fill out the form and look out for someone to contact you! Keep in mind this might not be someone you are friends/mutuals with, so keep an eye out for it.
If you want to find a beta: check out the spreadsheet (either on the discord, sending operafloozy an ask, or emailing CR.Summer.Wildflowers[at]proton.me), see if there’s anyone who fits what you’re looking for. Contact them, and see if it works out!
Why not just post the list for everybody? Because this list involves contact information paired with fandom stuff, I’d like to allow for there to be fewer eyes on it. You can contact a mod by sending an ask, messaging (operafloozy) on discord, or emailing me at CR.Summer.Wildflowers[at]proton.me.
What do art betas do? Sometimes you’re working on a piece and you’ve been staring at it for hours and you don’t know if it’s just the fact that you’re going cross eyed or if there’s something else going on but it just does not look right, so you show it to someone else and they’re like ‘head’s too big’. Anyway, that.
Can I sign up to be a beta if I’m a participant? Yep! We're trusting that whoever is filling your prompt won’t choose you to beta your own work, so you’re all good. (maybe put your AO3 username as your name, though)
Do I have to have my work beta'd before posting?: Nope! I didn't last year, though rereading that stuff, I should have.
The beta signup form is here!
