Additional information:
I can't take on authors for regular beta work on long WIPs. I am more than happy to take on one-shots on a case by case basis or to fill in for a regular beta on a chapter or two if they are unavailable. For questions about medical stuff, feel free to fire a PM or email at me and I'd be happy to answer them anytime. Please note that I work full time and turn-around on stories will not be same or even next day, usually. I will let you know what my timeline looks like when I receive a request.

Does not want to deal with stories that contain the following:
I reserve the right to refuse any story, but it would take a whole lot.
 
Other qualifications that may be useful:
I have a pretty wide range of experience and education, and I'm always willing to look into references.
 
Additional information:
I'm 27 years old, and I only discovered the Whedonverse about 3 years ago. I loved Firefly first, and then BtVS, then Angel and I'm slowly acquiring the comics. At the beginning of the show, I didn't like Spike (omg, I know, crazy talk) but as the characters developed, he has become my favorite character. I have a bachelors degree that I designed myself combining psychology and theater. But I also have a lot of experience in English and Literature. Don't take this little blurb as an example. If I read your work, I will take it seriously and work hard to make powerful suggestions.

If you want to contact me don't use the contact info listed here, I hardly ever check that one, use LisFayte@aol.com Due to temporary computer problems, I am not taking authors right now.

    I'm open to anything! You can't offend me! =-)
     
    Additional information:
    I'm studying to be a major is psychology and I have a pretty good grasp on grammar etc. (Although if you ask me to do anything beyond basic math you're out of luck) I fell wildly in love with BtVS just a few short months ago and since that time I've watched every episode and I'm in the process of re-watching them. I'm also watching Angel although I'm having a harder time making it through those. They seem redundant to me. Anywho...reading is one of my most favorite things to do so I can definitely help with whatever problems you might be facing! ~luv~ Nichol.
