Yeah...

Ahem. So. Here's the thing.

I signed up for the Back to Basics SGA challenge a little bit ago, knowing full well that it would come due on the 8th of May. This was, however, back when the thesis was supposed to be out of the way by April 28. There ought to have been gobs of free time in which to work. Now, with the due date of The Monster that Ate My Soul pushed to this Friday, things are a little more wonky.

Insert plea here.

I think I'll be okay on the writing, given that I actually have a plot outline for this one and know where it's going, and some bits that really only need to be connected. The beta side of things, though, is where it gets tricky. Would any of you kind souls be willing to step into the breech and do a speed read, given that the timing here is going to be very... tight. Chances are good that I won't have a draft done until Sunday night, and with it due on Monday... I'm going to be wretched and hold off as long as possible on the posting (does very, very early on Tuesday still count as Monday?), but I'm rather nervous about posting anything with serious story structure unbetad. Particularly since this is intended for someone.

So, anyone? *looks pathetic*

I'm free if you want to throw it my way! I'm pretty much on my computer all weekend anyway and I just spent this sunday do speed beta's too.

Plus I really love your stuff so it'd be a pleasure ;)

Thank you, both for the lovely words and the betaing! I'll ship it in your direction as soon as it's done. :>

*looks at calendar*
Your Sunday I think is my Mondayish, so that should be fine, I'll be back on my Sunday morning and if you are up at that time then you shouldn't be! Not to mention that I will of course be able to get online anyway. If you want to send it along that is.

I am far too strung out on caffeine and non-sleep to follow your breakdown of timelines, but I'm going with the general message of 'yes'. *g* (And the sad thing is, there's at least even odds that I will indeed be up at whatever time that time happens to be. I seem to always be up these days.)

So, basically: I definitely want to send it along. Should be winging its way to you eventually. Thanks!

Most of the breakdown of timelines was for my own benefit :P Apparently if I type it out then I can understand it as well. Read it like a lot of muttering to myself, followed by 'yes'. You aren't the only one strung out on caffeine and non-sleep *grin*

It is when the days slide into each other and you have no idea what your name is that you should worry. *blinks* Meaning I am screwed.

I shall wait with anticipation.
