Date: 2016-09-03 02:13 pm (UTC)I'm mainly worried that the combination of length, timing, fandom, and subject matter means I won't find a beta reader. I'm not as worried about SPaG as I am about consistent characterization, finding unfired Chekov's guns, etc., and all of that is vastly more time consuming for a beta reader and generally harder than SPaG.

Date: 2016-09-03 03:02 pm (UTC)Quick question: Can I upload it as a draft now, for purposes of (further) proofreading, to my AO3 account; then, during the posting period, add the IIBB tag(s) to it?

Date: 2016-09-03 05:22 pm (UTC)Would it be okay to post this as IIBB, and then later post a sequel to it, when not IIBB-ing?
no subject
Date: 2016-09-05 03:05 pm (UTC)Sure, feel free to post your current fic for IIBB and then the sequel later! And thank you for checking in.

Date: 2016-09-04 03:11 pm (UTC)2. Femslash Reylo with fem!kylo fpreg: It keeps growing more scenes that absolutely have to be written. I've got a bit of a hydra situation going on here. Every new scene I write sprouts off three more thrown all across the fic. This is turning into something a lot more sprawling than anything I've written before (which is to say, it's not a one-shot). There are so many gaps in the plot, and what it is growing into is something I am not sure I can finish by posting time, which is concerning for me. On the up side, I am having a blast writing it.

Date: 2016-09-07 12:59 am (UTC)On the plus side, I hammered out 10k words for a completely unrelated story this long weekend while procrastinating on finishing my bang fic. Priorities!
I still haven't actually managed to write the really good iddy portion of this fic. It's just not coming out! :P (At least I'm mostly through the angst.)
Well, I still have time, I guess.
That, or if I can find another suitably-iddy idea, I could always start from scratch. One week-and-change to go, woo!

Date: 2016-09-07 03:55 pm (UTC)Aha! This mod sees the problem. There was a kink in your id! It's fixed now, and you should expect the id to come freely! *\o/*
Don't give up, and thanks for checking in!
