Looking for a beta for Importance of Family

Okay ya'll I've got the last two parts and the epilogue written for The Importance of Family, now I just need someone to look it over. The main thing I'm interested in is typos, plot, characterization or any other more technical writing insights you might have.  Criticism is appreciated. The first chunk is about 5,000 words long and the second two total about 6,400. I kind of want to get this posted sometime soon so that's why I'm searching for a beta. 

Any volunteers? The help would be very much appreciated.

NCIS Beta?

So I wrote an NCIS fic for the [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti auction and now I need someone to beta it for me. Anyone willing? 

Just the usual typo, grammar and pointing out any glaring plot holes. It's not terribly long. Only about 3,000 words or so. Any help would be muchly appreciated. :D

I come seeking grammar. 'Cause I gotz nun.

How do you plural a noun that's not meant to be pluralized?  

Example: "I would deal with a thousand Johns for you."   Do you just stick an 's' on the end?  I feel like there should be an apostrophe but that would make it possessive, right? And this isn't being possessive...I don't think.  I could just leave this for my poor beta to figure out later, I realize that, but I thought I'd give my flist and assorted peeps a shot first.

So...anyone have any grammar advice for me?

Hollows beta?

So, I wrote a Hollows fic for one of the December events at P&P, and I was hoping someone would mind taking a beta-type look at it for me? It's been a while, and I think my Hollows writing skills are a little rusty, so I'd really appreciate it if someone would be willing.

I have to have the fic ready to turn in on the 12th.

Looking for an NCIS Beta

Okay, so I finally, finally finished "Taking Chances" this NCIS fic that I've been working on since '06.  It's about 15,000 words long or so and I need a beta for it.  Can anyone help me out?

As well as the usual typo/grammar issues, I really need someone who can keep an eye out for plot holes an internal continuity.  I wrote the first part and the second part of this thing three years apart, and there were some massive plot changes in there so I need to make sure that everything works together as far as the story is concerned.  

Anyone up for it? I'd really appreciate the help.

NCIS Beta

Does anyone want to take a look at a short NCIS fic for me? It's so sweet and fluffy that it might give you cavities, and as a bonus there are no spoilers although there might be a bit of tiny, unspecific foreshadowing of doom in there.

Otalia Beta?

Okay, so I wrote another Otalia fic.  It's a loose sequel to Until I Can Breathe Again. 

Does anyone mind taking a look at it for me? I need help with typos/characterization, and really anything else that you want to say about it!

Um....

Remember the part where Otalia ate my brain?  Well, I wrote a short little ficlet today, and apparently I have a slight case of the new fandom jitters.  Someone want to take a look and tell me if it's out of character or if there's any little detail in there that just stands out and slaps you the wrong way?

Beta an NCIS fic for me?

So...I finally (hehe 'finally', try 'just') wrote up a post-ep fic for last week's NCIS.  Anyone mind taking a critical, typo catching glance at it for me before I post it?

I'm alive. Wanna beta a Hollows fic?

Hello Everyone. :D

My absence? Was crazy busy. Went to Kansas. Got home. Am crazy tired. Will be even more crazy busy tomorrow. I think I'll be writing up more about the Kansas trip tomorrow if I can find the time and anyone cares. :p

The main point of this post was that I was hoping that someone might be interested in beta'ing the first part of a Hollows fic for me? It's not the longish fic that I was working on for Epic Proportions but something else entirely. It started as a little idea that I had for IDF and as usual with me and Hollows fic it just keeps growing and growing.  So now it's turned into a longish fic that I'll probably be updating on a weekly basis and I think I'm ready to have someone look at the first part and get their thoughts, impressions, opinions, and red ink about it. Would anyone be willing to take a look at it? Pretty please?

Broken record, much?

Would anyone be interested mind taking a look at it for me before Monday rolls around?

NCIS beta?

Would anyone be able to beta an NCIS fic for me?  I know I'm cutting it close, but it has to be posted by July 1st for this ficathon and I'm just now finishing it up.  I'd really appreciate it if someone would be able to help.

Looking for a beta?

Would someone mind too terribly beta'ing a Hollows fic for me?  No particular rush.  It's just taken me a while to pound someone out and I think half of it's a mess so I'd really appreciate it if someone would be willing to take a look at it with a razor keen eye and a red pen of doom.

NCIS Beta?

Would anyone be willing to beta an NCIS (Ziva/Abby) fic for me?  It's just a one-shot fic thingie, no spoilers in it or anything.

I really need to get an SGA icon.

I wrote a Stargate: Atlantis/NCIS crossover fic.  It was originally supposed to be Teyla/Ziva, but ended up coming out with a bit of Teyla/Elizabeth angst and some Abby/Ziva on the side kinda. 

The thing I'm having trouble with though is the Atlantis canon.  I've seen most of the episodes, but not all of them and I really don't want to goof on this because that's tacky.  Would someone be willing to take a look at this for me and just take a look to see if there are any glaring errors? And maybe look over the rest and offer betaly thoughts?

Beta, pretty please?

I need a beta for a Stargate Atlantis fic.  Would anyone be willing to help me out with it?  Some knowledge of the fandom would probably help, because I'm not an hundred percent solid on my fandom terminology yet, and it'd really help if someone could point out when things just sounded wrong.
