Weirdly, I'm looking for a Sherlock beta
OK, this is odd.
I opened a folder that I haven't looked at since my dad died, and in it, I found the complete first draft of a Sherlock story. I remember starting it, but I didn't remember finishing it at all.
The thing is, it needs a real, solid beta.
I mean not a proofreader, and not somebody to say, "Hey, it's pretty good, go ahead and post it." Because I actually think it is pretty good -- it's like 75% smut by volume, so it's hard to go wrong -- but it's not quite pulling the full potential out of the concept. I need somebody to take a drone view and figure out what's wrong with the shape of it.
(Details: It's aliens make them do it, and seems to have been written in the golden moment after The Reichenbach Fall and before we knew that they didn't actually have answers for any of the questions posed by The Reichenbach Fall. There's another one in that folder that has potential, too. )
I don't even know where my betas are. Any of y'all still here?
