SGA Big Bang
Mar. 5th, 2008 09:29 pmI just commented to offer my services as a beta over at ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
sgabigbang. Eeeep!
I'd really love to get more involved with the fandom, and what better way than to help edit a fic of 40K+ words? Plus, it'd be a nice change from editing law review articles, which are sadly lacking in gay sex (discussions of Lawrence v. Texas notwithstanding).
Posting the comment felt very much like trying to write an ad for myself--I had to make sure not to put in a cheery "Thank you for your consideration!" at the end, as I get the impression that sort of thing is a bit gauche. (And ending with "Good luck with your stories!" to the writers who might be reading seemed, awkwardly enough, potentially condescending, and that's certainly not what I'm aiming for at all. Just: Damn, 40K? Those are many words to put in order!)
So, Baby Step Into Fandom #3, completed! Now begins the waiting to see if anyone picks me. </grade school gym class>
