Project Team Beta is a volunteer group of knowledgeable beta proofreaders who provide technical and creative feedback to authors of fan fiction.
We have been established in the Twilight Fandom for almost 3 years now, and are now looking for interested authors and betas in the Harry Potter and Hunger Games fandom.
Beta jobs are on a voluntary basis. We do our very best to maintain with beta's preferences and time restraints. Though our beta guidelines state we would like all assignments back within 48 hours, we understand that real life has tendency to kick us where it hurts and would totally understand the need for extensions. Betas are also welcomed as authors.
For authors, we are exceptionally helpful to those who are unsure as to what they want out of a beta. All betas have different editing styles, and what might work for one author, might not work for another. With PTB, you have the opportunity to work with many different beta'ing styles until you find two betas that are perfect for you.
For those running contents and challenges, we also have a section where we'll advertise it in exchange that you mention our site to authors. The challenges will reach all of our followers on Tumblr (with the possibility of it being reblogged), along with being tweeted on our Twitter account of 1000+ followers.
