Spike/Anya Fanfiction Beta Readers

The following are goddesses who will beta read (i.e. edit, give constructive criticism, and check your spelling, although you should spell check before you send it to someone). Note: This page is under construction while I seek out new betas.

These betas have agreed to read Anya/Spike, if you need betas for other pairings check the btvswg.

Want to be a Beta? Email your name, email and any subject matter you won't read or that you excel at to Moving On.

Allison Grace - Her fic can be found here. Will help with canon, slang, grammar, spelling and plot. Prefers Dark Fic, NC-17, character death, Bloodplay, incest, anything sick and wrong. There is nothing she won't read. Trust Me.

Name: Annie

Email: [email protected]

Favorite characters: Spike, Willow, Anya

Favorite pairings: Spike/Anyone, Spike & Anya, Dawn friendship

Will you read slash: Yes please

Anything you won't read: Rapefic, incest, really out-there AU (no vampires, no slayer), Buffy-bashing

Expected Turn around: Three to four days

Strengths: I'm a grammar queen/nerd, good speller, good with catching holes in the story, characterization, and cannon details.

Belle - Good with grammar, characterization, spelling, punctuation, will read anything (send in Word2000 if possible)

Brenda - Avid Anya fan. Welcome to any storyline or any ship. Will help hash out problems and give advice on grammar points. Basically an English major sick of reading about the Theoretical Prospects of Poverty in Western Europe in the Late Eighteenth Century. If you are having trouble writing Anya this I am the one to ask. Fairly obsessed enough to play her in an RPG. Please give notice in the submit of fanfic of what help you are looking for. If you choose me Thank You!!

catatonic1242:

Favorite characters: Spike, Anya, Tara, Giles

Favorite pairings: Spuffy, Spander, Spangel, anything involving Spike

Will you read slash: Happily

Anything you won't read: I'll read it all, although I don't particularly enjoy whiny! Dawn or Riley Sucks fic.

Expected Turn around: About a week

Strengths: I'm good with the history of the show (determining what is and isn't canon) and with making stylistic suggestions

Larilyn - Wills & Won'ts: I don't enjoy reading m/m slash, but I don't think that will be a big problem on a Spike/Anya site. I have a love of history, so I would be helpful if any one wants to delve into Spike and Anya's past. I also have some knowledge about witchcraft. I read and review pretty quickly and I do give constructive criticism.

Libby - Website, Beta preferences: Well written stories with valid characterizations. More Anya. I like Spike. Good smut is always entertaining. Minor characters can be interesting (Jonathan, Harmony). Humor is good. Consensual slash is fine by me. Humorous mysteries with some smutty romance are my ideal. Beta strengths: I am a perpetual student and freelance journalist, so my editing skills are pretty good. I also love to read!Wills/Won'ts: Dislikes: Rape, canon character death, character bashing or poor characterization (Anya, Giles, and Xander are more than just horny, stuffy, and goofy), songfic, sap (yes, I know Spike is romantic, but don't get silly -- he's a bad rude man). Slash is fine, but unless it's Spike/Angel or Willow/Tara, there should be a leadup. With Anya involved I could see some threesomes going on :) Good luck and send me stories

Mood Indigo - She is a criminologist and can help with technical crime stories

Vashti - anything but f/f

Winter - Site - Will read: grammer, punctuation, story flow, characterization. I can be pretty picky but it's only becuase I'm trying to help you write a better fic! Any Rating. Would enjoy a S/X/Ay threeway.
