Looking For Beta For Several Fandoms

[Nyx]

Uh, hi. Yo. T'sup. Sort of new here, so I suppose I'll just get to the point. I'm looking for a beta for . . . well, whichever fic I manage to continue first. My fanfiction is all anime, and active, multi-chapter stories include Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, and Gundam Wing. Inactive stories that might be active whenever I get interested enough again include Trigun and Devil May Cry (a PS2 game.) Ratings are all either PG-13 or (mostly) R, genres are predominantly romance, humor, and adventure, a parody or two, as well. The supernatural is my speciality, but high-tech futuristic mumbo-jumbo works, too. I don't write slash or het, just lots of insinuations and a limey moment here and there.

Grammer, punctuation, spelling, sentence structure and all that isn't a problem for me besides little things I miss trying to polish my own stuff. I need a serious beta for characterization, plot, brain-storming and basically trying to keep the story flowing. This sometimes leads me to research on things like various cultures, ancient weapons, firearms, and whether or not a certain character would do or say so-and-so and whatever. I'm a tiny bit obsessive and this is why I usually critique my own stuff . . . and also why I'm not allowed near sharp, shiny things or babies anymore.

Anyway, I'd really like someone who _knows_ the anime fandoms I mentioned, has the time to beta seriously, and can offer real constructive criticism. Nice is not mandatory (although it would be, well, nice), but honesty and knowledge is.

If anyone can help me, I'd truly appreciate it. Writer's block is gnawing at my leg right now, so I'm fairly desperate. I'm too proud to beg . . . but I'm not too proud to plead. Please! And if no one here can beta personally, any referrals would be welcome. Thanks!
