    I've been working on Oedipus for over a year now, and in that time haven't found a single beta reader who I feel would be good for it. It's quite flawed, particularly in typos and the excessive swearing in the early chapters; nonetheless, I think it has a lot of promise and good turn out to be a library worthy fic.

    I'm looking for a quite hands on beta, someone who will not only make sure my spelling and grammar is fine, but someone who is willing to rewrite parts of submitted chapters if necessary. I need them to be familiar with Doctor Who, and it would be a great if they were familiar with the Dune series as well.

    Hope someone is interested. Thanks.

    Ok, I'm bumping this as I'm getting desperate... and I'm not wanting to try my luck on Fanfiction.net again.

    You are encouraged to use the WbA. It doesn't replace a beta, but it's a start.

    Already done, though it's a simple matter of whether people review it then, which is entirely up to them. Begging for reviews is hardly going to make me popular with DLP or anyone with a brain.
