Ah, yes. I've decided that I need a beta who knows the plot for VPR, cause I'm starting to get all spinny about it. I would ask some people privately, but everyone's sooo busy with college and school and teaching. :) So I'm doing this 'public announcement' thingee. If any of you would like to, I'd be grateful, but I don't want anyone who's too busy feeling obligated. *hugs*

ack!

ack! ackackackACK!

:resists the urge to bang down mori's door:

who *cares* about busy?!!

:raises hand:

can i? regret or reena can give you my credentials...

i can honestly say that i have the time for this. all of my time commitments have proven to be less time-consuming than previously thought. now, if [livejournal.com profile] nyanone and i were currently translating 'demon's tale' it would be different, but we're not starting that until prolly after her graduation thesis is done. heh.

anyway, if you'd like, i'll do it. i'm going to be a bit busy over the next few days, what with catching up on the backlogs my parents' visit created, and with writing chapter 13 (it's happening today and tomorrow- i'm going insane from not writing) and other stuff, but after i'm caught up (monday?) there should not be a problem.

(oh, and i'll have that list for you sometime today. =^-^= must go back to sleep first, though- damn body waking me up at *7*am on a saturday... :grumbles:)

*laughs* Regret told me about you. :) Um, okay, if you really want to. Far be it for me to refuse. :) And *I* care about people being busy. I really don't want to be any trouble. But...yeah! *bright grins* I'll just figure out exactly how to say the plot without being confuzzled on it, and I'll e-mail you. Thanks! *hugs*

*laughs* Regret told me about you. :)

um. now, while the smiley face indicates good thoughts, that laugh... =^-^=

yay! betaing VPR! :schnoogles mori:

and thank *you*!

i feel like the audience at the premiere of a movie...

Oh, no, it wasn't a *bad* laugh. *hugs* It's the 'YOU get to know what's going on, and *I* am in the dark on 'Enough'' laugh. *grins* And you're welcome! *dies* The audience at the premiere of a movie? Come on, Ish, my stuff isn't THAT good. :)

:relief:

oh, that's good. and... :evil grin:

heh. well. um. yeah, so i get it good, don't i? :smirks and huggles:

The audience at the premiere of a movie? Come on, Ish, my stuff isn't THAT good. :)

ok. now is when i take out my interdimensional mallet and beat you over the head with it!!!

you are good. very good. i am not saying you are perfect, because (a) no one is (b) perfection is boring (3) i'm not going to lie.

you need work, yes. again, you are not alone in this. but what you have is *potential*, and a lot of it. there are many published authors who do quite well who are not as good as you. :grumps:

jkr is, when it comes down to it, not a very spectacular writer.

anyway, i wouldn't beta someone who i didn't think was worth it. and who i thought couldn't stand up to criticism.

anyway, back to squeeing...

i'm betaing VPR!!! woot!

:thumbs nose -lovingly- at kass:

*sniffles* I get so abused! First I get 'thwapped' with a fish, and NOW I get smacked on the head by an interdimensional mallet?? but... ahem. Excuse me while I go squeeing for a while. :)

...

But really, the support for Variations on Prophecy and Reality has surprised me. I'm glad everyone likes it! :)

AH! *hides and melts* The outpouring of support for VPR is amazing! *laughs* Didn't I already let you read what's going on in VPR already? And, Regret, love, that's NOT the way to think about college. *laughs*

And I would love to have you and Ishuca both beta'ing this, actually, but if I do that, then who will sit and read this thing? The other two and a half people who look in my journal? *arches eyebrow* Riddle me that, dearest!
