Well...here we are, three weeks away from the Oz Big Bang deadline, and I have a problem.  Everyone I would normally give an Oz story to beta for me is already involved in Oz Big Bang as either a writer, artist or web designer - and two of them are Big Bang Mods as well.  And the crunch is on for all of them.  Not to brag, but I'm farther along in my project than anyone else I know of - my story is written.  Well, the artists just got their projects, so they have reason not to be any farther along, but that's not the point.  I currently have a LARGE story that needs a beta - and no Oz betas in sight.

What I need is a grammar, spelling, sentence structure kind of beta, because if I can get that stuff covered, one or more of my regular betas should have time to cover the Oz content.  The problem is the story is 81,000 words.  Okay, so I guess I should just call it like it is - that's a novel.  A short novel, but still.  A novel.  And it's due on Sept. 13th.  There may be a day or two wiggle room on that date, but I'm not counting on it. 

There are two or three non-Oz people out there who I'd love to ask about this (you know who you are :::sends smooches your way:::), but I seriously don't want to put any pressure on anyone who might feel guilty for saying no.  So I'm just throwing it open - if you're interested, or know of someone who might be interested, please let me know.

So yeah...any crazy person wanna take my story on?  I'd be eternally grateful.  Really, I would.  I don't know what I could do about that, except maybe write you some fic or make an icon or a dozen, but still - my eternal gratitude would be yours.
