Re: FIC :Immortal Pair ch3



Hi again,
Now that I've read the first three parts of you story I must say it
looks very promising. 

Most of the problems are ons that would be taken care of with a decent
Beta reader. If you ask for one on the list I'm sure you will find
someone that will be more than happy to help you out. 

The only thing I really have to say is you need to rework your
disclaimer or header or what ever you want to call it.

Here's kind of an example of the one I use when I'm posting a fic, at
least for the first part. For the subsequent parts I tell them to see
part 1 and add any warnings that this particular part needs if any.

I hope his helps and if I can do anything else let me know. K?

The header I use is below.
TTFN

Later
Alex

Title: Name of Story (part#/#of parts)
Author: Name of Author
Feedback: Please any comments or suggestions to: Where you want off list
comments to go.(your e-mail address)
Archive: Where your story is being posted
Summary: A brief summary of your story
Spoilers: Title of any episodes that you use in your story, if you don't
use any then say so. 
Disclaimer: The characters of Buffy, Willow, Giles, and any others from 
BTVS are the property of Joss Whedon and Mutant Enemy etc. No
infringement of any kind intended and no money made. 
Warning: Let people know what kind of story it is if there is sex in it
and if it's slash f/f m/m. 
Also if there is like violence and if there is a character death also
you might warn them to leave if they aren't 18.
Always tell people if there is like a rape scene or if there's mention
of it. 
This really is offensive to a lot of people and you are better off to
warn them, it helps cut down on the flames. 
Basically give them a chance to move on to another story if they don't
like what you are writing about. 
Also slash is illegal to read in some of our less than progressive
Southern U.S. (don't get mad, I'm from the South, and I've lived with
some of our less liberal dwellers, so don't flame me over the truth) 
Rating: Like rating a movie
G = Safe for anyone to read, no sex or graphic violence.
PG = Some mention of sex, some mild violence, and slash,
but ok for most people to read
PG13 = There is sex, and violence and things like that, but
nothing real graphic.
R = Actual sex acts and/or violence described in a graphic
manner. You know, the good stuff.
NC17= Really graphic sexual acts usually mention some more
advanced acts such as BDSM, cannibalism, really graphic chainsaw
massacre, blood, guts, and gore, I'm sure you get the idea. ::BTW no
bestiality or Child Pornography please.::
Pairing: What couples you have put together Buffy/Willow Faith/Spike
whoever
Dedication: Thank whoever helped you out and/or inspired you since all
our betas and others who help is a thank you and appreciation of their
hard work on your behalf it's always good to make sure you thank them

Also explain any unusual marking or punctuation you're using such as
<>thoughts<>
