Writing

Well, I got back into it again. I've started up hacking at the Harry Potter fanfic I was kicking around with the HoIF crew and [livejournal.com profile] sithjawa back in January.

I'm fairly happy with where it is now; my betas have the first chunk (anyone wishing to beta, speak up; I won't promise that you will get to, but I'll consider you) and I'm contemplating where to go with the next section.

I'm feeling a little lost at the moment. I don't have a good sense of voice for any of these characters on this story. Normally I do a killer Snape, but I haven't felt plugged in right today. I did go through and clean up a little, getting rid of some of the glaring bits where he was most assuredly not-Snape, but... And I don't have Hermione down, and I'm not even tracking well on Harry and Ron. Let alone Pomfrey! She seems to be one of the main characters followed at the moment, and that's not what I'd intended at all!

Ah well. Back to Draco in his rather wretched state.

Always interested in beta-ing. ^_^

Hey Azz,

I have never beta'ed before but I have bang-on grammar, am good at spotting where a fic may be too American, and also am getting better at spotting when characters are OOC.

I think I may do my best at proofreading, if you need that sort of detail work. Please consider me.
