I'm happy to take all the help I can get. Skype is just a convenience. I'll shoot you a PM. If anyone else would like to lend me their help that would also be great. Thanks!

I think I may be able to help, Sherlocked. I'm American, so I won't be the best at Brit-picking, but I'll be able to offer at least a native speaker's perspective. Send me a PM how you'd like to proceed. 

I'm slowly working on a fanfic scene of my own (very slowly, mostly during boring meetings), and for whatever reason, it came to me in German. I don't know if I'll ever finish it, or if I'd even publish it, but if I do, it would be great to have a native speaker read through it to correct my glaring word choice errors. 

ah, in the process of writing - not complete. I've got a solid half a page. It's strange, but sometimes things make more sense in a foreign language, 

I know how you feel I badly need beta readers with my fics because I type too fast for one thing, and my eczema can also make typing difficult. I always check for typos and mistakes but it doesn't stop them finding their way into an uploaded chapter! 

I had one for one fic but the site kept crashing so I could never replace the existing chapter. Doesn't do it now though.

I started a thread here: http://sherlock.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=3541 to get people's interest in becoming beta readers but it only has a couple of posts in it. Still, you might want to contact one of them.
