Another of those desperate last-minute beta requests

[snorkackcatcher]

Could anyone do a really quick-turnaround beta for me tomorrow or Wednesday? You know, one of those "get fic, read, send back a few hours later" things? :) It's for springtime_gen, and won't be very long -- I hope to get it done in 2000 words or less, but shouldn't really go over 3000 given the amount of time I have. I can't say much about the theme as it's an anonymous exchange, but basically it's most unlikely to hit anyone's squicks or anything like that.

Lyrics: Oh yes, the last one was 1979's At Home He's A Tourist by Gang of Four, which parthenia14 spotted as I rather thought she might. ;) So here's a set of memorable lyrics I meant to use before, but never got around to:

You stopped us from killing each other
You'll never know but you saved our lives
I've never thrown my knickers at you
And I don't come from Wales (1990s)

I don't know how picky are with your beta's CVs, but I'd be happy to help =)

And despite what the above comment may indicate, I do have a more than perfunctory grasp of Grammar and Spelling.

I shouldn't LJ while in class, obviously.

[snorkackcatcher]

Understood. :)

[snorkackcatcher]

Excellent! Thank you very much!

Quick question: are you still free to do this? And if so, which email address can I send the .doc file to? I should confess that due to my inability to write short, it's now about 5,000 words. :(

The Ballad of Tom Jones by Cerys Matthews and Space:

Oh I used to call you Satan
And you were Cruella De'Ville
And now you call me your Delilah
And I am not your Lucifer
And I am just your pussycat
But just a word of warning now
Just in case we ever get tired of his voice
I know the Mafia, Godzilla, King Kong
And I know an atom bomb that's going for a song.

Hello! I'm Auds. msmoocow directed me to your CM Movie!Quote Fic, and I must say, brilliant. I've been meaning to poke around your LJ for quite some time, but finally am tonight. Would you mind terribly if I friended you so that I can keep up with your writing? :)

[snorkackcatcher]

Of course not! More the merrier. :) Glad you liked it.
