Would you be willing to beta Operation Escape after I'm finished with it? I'd like you (if you're up to it) to make sure I don't have any piddly mistakes (like I accidently spelled something wrong due to fast typing; if the plot is too slow or too fast in any of my chapters; if I need to take anything out pot-wise; and if my characters development is good enough.) I know that's a huge list, but...would you be willing to help me out after I'm done? (I still have four chapters and an epilouge to post.) Oh, and this is an R rated story. For excessive violence, some swearing (though it doesn't happen until chapter ten or eleven--I think. But I'm not sure. And, personally, I don't like writing swear words. Sadly, it makes the dialouge seem "more realistic.") and a sex scene in chapter 14. If you'd be willing to help me out, I'd really appriciate it.

Oh, that's not too bad a list.  It's actually great to see you want some specifics critiqued on your story; I like having stuff to keep in mind, and this way I know what you're looking for to be beta-read. (And in case that didn't make it obvious enough, I'd be fine with beta'ing it after you've finished.  ) R-rated's alright with me, too, so no worries on that either.

Alright.  I'll do my best to get around to reading it all before you finish so I'll have an idea of what it's all about before beta-reading.

Okie-doke. Would you be willing to review, or no?

Sorry for the double post--but this is the only way I can tell you what else I'd like you to look at. (Please and thank you.) Could you check to make sure my math is correct? I'm bad at math and might have screwed the numbers up. Could you make sure I don't have any spelling/grammer errors? (I think I'm pretty good with grammer and spelling, but just in case.) Um...I'll post somethin' else if I come up with more things for you to check for. Okay? You're an awesome beta! Thanks!

No problem with the double-post; it's definitely been over two days anyway since the last one.  And sure I can; it'll probably wait until I get down to beta'ing it in the story (reading the chapter and making comments/suggestions throughout) since it's easier to just highlight those in red than to try and point them all out in a review.  But yes, certainly I can help with that.
