2015 Beta Sign Ups

[http://users.livejournal.com/traycer_/]

Most people will already have their own beta reader, but hey, maybe they want to try someone new. A beta reader is a person who reads another person's written work with a critical eye, with the aim of improving grammar, spelling, characterization, and general style of a story before the author posts it up. All participants must get their fiction beta’d by at least one person.

Preferred Fandoms/Pairings: MCU, any het except genderbending, Clint/Natasha, or Bucky/Natasha. Pretty much anything else is more than welcome, including same-gen incest (bring on the Pietro/Wanda). I've kept up with every MCU property, including all the shows.
Is there any type of fiction you would prefer to avoid beta'ing? 100% pure PWP, probably, but any rating is fine.
What are your strengths as a beta reader? Good with grammar, would like to think I'm good with characterization and assessing other people's plot (though not at writing it myself)
What kind of turn around time can someone expect from you? Depends on the length, but my summer will be pretty free. A few days for a little bang; a week or more for a big bang (depending on how long it ends up).
