No takers on the beta'ing. I wish I could say I was surprised, but I couldn't even get a steady beta back when the fandom was active. Maybe because I'm asking for more than proof-reading? Pretty discouraging, though.

Have you tried comms like http://find-me-a-beta.livejournal.com or http://fandom-betas.livejournal.com? I found my first beta like that. It's worth a try, right? And a total stranger might be better for the fic than a loyal friend, even.

That might be my next step. I was kinda hoping to find someone who was a least a bit familiar with my stuff, since I'd be asking them to jump into the middle, but maybe I was expecting too much. But it seems like most people get beta'd by others in the fandom and I'm kinda - more than kinda - wondering why I seem to be the exception to that.
