Looking for a beta! by

Now that my mission is finally done, I need a beta to see just how inconsistent my writing is...
Kidding. But I do need a beta. Knowledge of the continuum (Forgotten Realms) isn't required, but I need someone who can spot plotholes and inconsistencies well. I also need someone to check for SPaG mistakes.
If anyone's interested, post your email so I'll be able to share the GDoc with you. -
Also on the lookout. by

I'm looking for a beta just to read through the latest draft of my Permission writing sample. I've got most of it sorted out but a fresh air of eyes would be appreciated.

Or share it, whichever. My email's below.
My apologies to everyone if I don't get back to you right away, occasionally university interferes (pesky thing!) But such interference tends to be temporary, so...send away!

Wow, it's really weird not to be posting as DuskWater.

Be careful your alternate personality doesn't take over. by

Too much time in an altered mindset can do weird things to a person. I see from your later chapters in the fanficWorld thread that you're already on speaking terms with your DuskWater self; that's good. It keeps the other mindset from becoming hostile, and allows it to differentiate itself as a separate entity. You don't want it claiming to be the "real" you, or you're going to have a real problem, no pun intended.
All pseudo-psychology aside, that sort of thing is why I didn't make Cyber-Observer much different from myself, albeit a version myself from several years ago before I learned that not everything I thought up was a good idea. It feels weird shifting out of something you didn't realize you became accustomed to.
Maybe I'll diverge a little further next year; this year's Cyber-Observer was more an experiment than anything else, and it failed in certain respects.
