Beta call

[tadorna]

Hello. I finished a fic. Just wondering whether anyone might fancy having a look at it for me? It's Doctor Who, Captain Jack gennishness, 5,000 words. Be lovely if anyone's interested, but please don't feel in any way obligatededed. Thank you. :)

In other news, I tried to have breakfast this morning - disaster! The milk had, not gone off exactly, but kind of condensed. It was like condensed milk on my cornflakes. Nice!

I'd love to read it but as I lack any objectivity and any experience in the genre or in writing generally, my comments wont be what you are looking for....but i would love to read it!

Did you read of a woman who knitted a ferrari (or similar)? For her end of year art project or something.

Ah, but you do have experience as a reader. Not sure how much sense it'll make without background knowlege, but if you're happy to read it, I'd love to hear you comments. Could you email me, though, if you don't want to post your email address here? I'm sure I've got a couple of addies for you, but not sure whether they're right!

Oh, and I did indeed read about the Ferrari woman. Quite impressive!

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

I would be delighted to have a look.

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

Great! I'll send it over. :)

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

And yay!!! You FINISHED something!!!!

Good on you!

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

I know, I'm rather pleased! :) Feel a bit bereft though, now it's finished.

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

The only remedy is to start something else immediately! Or rather (having seen your laptop) finish something else.

I actually downloaded the first ep of SGA 3 today. So that's a step back into the fold. I can't bring myself to watch it, though. It's up on my desktop but I keep replying to comments instead...

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

I've seen it. Quite action-y. :)

Thanks for beta, btw. Helpful! Hopefully will get back to you on it soon, if that's ok with you.

I can't bear to look at it at the moment though. Had such a bad day at work, it's coloured everything with negativity. :(

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

Shelly, are you better? Are you better???

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

Yes! I am! Much better, just dying in the heat, and I've had no time to respond to comments or emails. My brain is addled, honestly - I can't string two thoughts together!

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

The heat makes moosh of us all! It's a good excuse! I just loll.

Am so glad you are BETTAH! :-)

[lobelia321.livejournal.com]

contd. I need you to watch it with!!

once more i say: oh do send it over, do!

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

I will, I will! :)

[natika.livejournal.com]

I'd love to have a look at it. All I've read lately is computer reports and UNCTAD reports and my reading life just lacks variety, woe.

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

Great, I'll send it. Thanks! Word file attachment ok?

[natika.livejournal.com]

Should be (=

[sheldrake.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I've sent it to the email listed on your journal - not sure if this is the one you usually use, but my proper address book is on the other computer, so I thought I'd take a chance. :)
