So, the thing is, after I finally finish typing the Doom/Blade:Trinity/Pirates of the Caribbean/Star Trek reboot fic, I'm going to be so sick of it that I won't be able to reread it. Are any of you willing?  It's already topped two-thousand words and there's still about thirteen more pages to type.  I'd like someone to look for typos or horrendous plotholes.

Also, in the reel_startrekfic, I have a scene where some characters ride horses bareback.  Since I've never done that, would anyone be willing to read over it for any glaring errors?  And no, that one's not typed yet either, so it might be a few weeks before I can send it to anyone.

I could handle the scene with the horses. I've done it often enough to let you know if the Trek crew would be making any fatal mistakes, anyway. *g*

[tigriswolf]

Okay, thank you! I'll send it your way when it's typed. Probably next week.

[tigriswolf]

What's your email?

[stillane.livejournal.com]

I'm at stillane at gmail dot com.

[tigriswolf]

It's sent! If you don't get it, pleaes let me know.

[stillane.livejournal.com]

Got it! Is it okay if I get it back to you tomorrow?

[tigriswolf]

That's fine.

I was going to say I can fact-check for bareback, but I appear to have been preempted.

[tigriswolf]

You wanna give a four-way crossover a go, instead?

[isaacsapphire.livejournal.com]

I lack familiarity with *any* of the fandoms, forget about all.

[tigriswolf]

Really? *gasp* You poor deprived person!

crossover

[somnolentblue]

hey, depending on what you need with the four way crossover, I'd be glad to look it over (as long as it could wait until after Oct 2). I'd be good with looking for typos, making sure Kirk doesn't abruptly sprout four extra legs and two extra heads without some explanation, and inquiring why the characters went from being in a turbolift to riding unicorns between one sentence and the next. However, I'm not terribly familiar with the canons. I've seen Pirates and Star Trek reboot, but I don't have the canon or fic conventions down cold. I've never seen Blade:Trinity or Doom. So, if you want/need someone to look at character voice and canon compliance I'm probably not your girl. Just let me know.

Re: crossover

[tigriswolf]

I pretty much just need typos checked and plotholes noted. I'm not too worried about the voices.

Re: crossover

[somnolentblue]

That I can do. Just email me when you get it typed up at somnolentblue at gmail dot com.

Re: crossover

[tigriswolf]

Will do. Thank you!

[tigriswolf]

I forgot to mention--it's slash. Is that alright?

Re: crossover

[somnolentblue]

*laughs* That is perfectly fine! I read just about everything; John/Sam or John/Dean and underage prOn are (generally) my lines.

Re: crossover

[tigriswolf]

Well, everyone is most certainly legal and non-incestuous in this one.

I have about four more pages to type, so I figured I'd finish and send it your way. I'll explain in more detail what I'd like from you in the email, if that's alright.

Re: crossover

[somnolentblue]

Sounds fabulous.

It's sent; if you don't recieve it, let me know.
