Hi, there, y'alls! Just looking for a couple of betas to skim my Permission writing sample. I'm planning to request Permission somewhere around early April. Thanks anyone who answers!

I've been on here a little longer than a day or two (almost a month, actually) but I've spent most of that time finishing the Original Series, doing my homework on the PPC, and figuring out editing. I DO occasionally read the Board, but I've only gotten up the courage to start posting-well, a day or two ago.

While that's wonderful to hear, if I were you I'd move my projected Permission Request to mid-April, or even late April, and spend at least a month actively participating on the Board. While you now feel you're ready (or nearly ready) to start writing, we don't actually know you very well (it has to go both ways!) and we'd prefer it if we saw you around for a while before you request Permission. So, hang out, comment, start a thread or two, and have some fun. As you've hopefully seen so far, we don't bite...and the extra time will allow your agents to develop even more as characters, and give you a great Permission Request to submit once we're ready to read it :)
Also, I think I may have missed out on welcoming you (I'm on vacation with inconsistent internet, which is the reason but not the excuse). Welcome to the Board! It's nice to meet you :) Here, have some Swiss Bleepolate!

Maybe I've missed something, but as far as I'm aware, you've only just started posting here in the last day or two. Even if you actually introduced yourself at some point when I wasn't paying attention, I still can't remember seeing you around until today. We like to have a chance to get to know people for more than a couple of weeks before handing out Permission, so focusing on preparing for a request in early April might be jumping the gun a bit. It's generally best to just hang out without worrying about it for a while. {= )
