Hijacker: Beta List


It has been brought to my attention (thanks [livejournal.com profile] jynx ) that perhaps a list of possible beta readers is in order. With the relative activity we will hopefully have until January next year (and just you wait what panda and I have in store for you*evil laugh*) I think a list of people willing to beta would help everyone.

So, if you want to be a beta-reader, please comment here!
I´ll create a beta list with all of our resources.

Our comm will be bigger, smarter and mor resourceful than ever!

Also, if you have other talents (like...a gazillion foreign languages and a doctor in medicine, martial art skills and  profound knowledge of the Norse Gods...or possibly the Skrulls) tell me to add those.



...why do I want a picture of either Steve or Tony (or both) all intellectual with glasses?

I've got an English degree and have four years of undergraduate creative-writing workshops behind me (so, an extensive ammount of time marking up other people's writing), and about half-to-two-thirds of a master degree in American history (I specialized in the 19th century America South, but I also know a decent amount about WWII, for Steve backstory fics). I also have an extensive knowledge of Iron Man and Avengers canon, and a decent knowledge of Captain America canon, though I still have some gaps in my reading of 70s & 80s Steve canon (I like volume 3 and Tales of Suspense better, so I read them first).

I currently live in NYC, though that's a recent development, and so can provide some amount of location beta-ing.

I'll beta anything except Ultimates fic or any fic wherein Steve is dead (because I don't/won't read either of those, and you have to read something to beta it), but I can't promise a swift response.

Forgot to add - decent though not extensive knowledge of Norse mythology, some amount of military knowledge via growing up by a Navy base and having family members in various branches of the armed services.

Is there any way I could contact you?

You don't have an e-mail address or instant message service listed.
