Name: Jarla E-mail: meghan@wisper-wireless.com Chaptered Story or One-Shot: Chaptered story (Operation Escape) Rating (G, PG, PG-13, R): R Genre: Action, Adventure, Angst, Drama, Romance, Tragedy Warnings: Language, Mature Themes, Sexual Content, Violence Additional Notes: I already have a beta, but she said that if I were to have a second one, the process would go faster, since SF is rather busy at the moment.  I have learned that, from King Ag, I write violence and death pretty well but I could use some help on the technicalities. I will admit that when I started Op. Escape, I was in eleventh grade and did not have the writing abilities I do now. Since SF beta'ed chapters 1-4, I have fixed those already. But, I think it would help if someone were to go over those, for spelling and grammar inconsistancies. Since I do not know what I need to work on, I need someone who is willing to go through all of my chapters and point out things I could work on.  This is not a romance story, but there are innuendo scenes. Even though I don't like swearing, I have to add some pretty gross or harsh words. I believe that's it.

Okay, sounds good! I'll send you the first chapter, so I don't overwhelm you.

Haha, that's cool. It normally doesn't take me long to get something betaed, if I have time to just sit down and do it. Just let me know when you send it so I'll make sure to check my mail.

I'm going to try something that worked with Nelv when we had this problem. I'll send you an email and can you send it to me either as an attachment or in the body of a reply?
The only reason I don't like to work with PMs (besides with all the italics and such being lost) is that I mark all the changes and comments I make in colors in Microsoft Word.
Oh, do you have Word? And if so, what year?

And I just got it. Okay, cool. I was just wondering so I know if I needed to save it in 03 or 07. I'll just send it back to you in an email. There aren't any italics in it, correct, or did you fix it?
