Beta available
Fandoms I'd be able to beta - any, if you just want SPAG, or general plot-making-sense feedback. Fandoms I know reasonably well are: SGA, SG1, due South, the Losers, Inception, Star Trek, Sherlock/ACD Holmes, or any I've written in from my AO3. There are other shows I know well though, so just ask.
No squicks, any rating's OK, slash, femslash, het, multi, whatever.
Kind of betaing I can do: SPAG (spelling and grammar), catching typos, canon details, medical/psychological details, general structure, characterization. Reasonably fast turnaround. I prefer to use Word's tracked changes or the same kind of thing in OpenOffice. I can download from Google docs but I don't edit there. I try to make comments to explain suggested edits, and to leave praise as well as critiqueing, but cheerleading by itself isn't my main thing. PM me if you want to exchange emails.

I'll need a beta in a few days for an SGA fic, about time travel so harder sci-fi than I usually write. It's shaping up as genfic, probably G rated. Some canon knowledge'd be useful as it doesn't diverge much from canon.
