Would anybody be interested in betaing a short 2k fic? (and it really is 2k - not going to grow to 10k while I'm not looking like my other fics seem to - this is 2k and finished.)

It's mostly a background/reflective sort of piece about Nightingale from River of London. (Yes, I'm writing in another fandom) It has a sort of past/background pairing of Thomas Nightingale/David Mellenby. It's G/PG rated.

Spelling/missing words/ grammar type beta needed. Set pre 1st book in the series you don't really need to know anything about the books beta it, as most of the book stuff doesn't apply yet - the fic takes place between 1945 and 1976. The books are about 2010 onwards.

Not in a massive hurry to get it back, I don't need to post it until mid July.

I cannot tell you how many fics I've read with things like, "He span around quickly." Noooooo. Span is reach, not a tense of spin. One of my pet peeves. I always want to email them, but I am not tactful enough to say "You are an idiot!" politely. I have come across some other gems, too. "He has a bad inhabit." is one. I should write a paper, "These words do not mean what you think they mean.", but I think that phrase has already been taken. I will check out the books. Thanks.
