2014 Makoto Birthday Exchange: Be a Beta/Find a Beta

[makobdayexchange]

By popular request, this year we're experimenting with having a dedicated pool of beta readers. You are more than welcome to use your own beta, of course! This is just for those want one but aren't sure how to find one on their own or otherwise feel more comfortable doing it this way.

A couple of notes on who can use this post:

• You do have to be a participant in the Makoto Birthday Exchange to ask for a beta.
• You do NOT have to be a participant in the Makoto Birthday Exchange to be a beta for someone. :D

The success of this experiment is entirely up to all of you. If you can't find a beta here, making a post on other site (fandom tagged or to a fandom comm) will usually do the trick.

If you are looking for a beta, please post this information in a comment below:
