Hello,

we just posted new guidelines for requesting betas. Please see the post here:
http://access-fandom.dreamwidth.org/60544.html

Please edit your post accordingly. Thank you!

[subluxate]

Oh, I'm not requesting a beta right now; I'm requesting advice. Do I still need to edit? It's nowhere near the point of needing a beta.

[sasha_feather]

Yes, you still need to edit your post. Sorry if the policy is unclear: we will adjust it to make it more clear. By betas we mean people to give you advice or feedback on your work or ideas.

[subluxate]

It's been edited. Apologies for misunderstanding.

[sasha_feather]

Thanks for editing!

p.s. Good luck with your story!

[subluxate]

Thanks! I feel pretty good about it. Just want to try to be sure I won't fuck it up.

You're asking for really detailed advice from people with disabilities and it's pretty much the same thing.

And as someone who's been asked similar questions about my disabilities, I didn't see it that way. That's why I asked the mod.
