Fandoms: Note -- I'm more than happy to read canon-blind for SPAG/structure/flow. From the tagset I'm comfortable with these fandoms: Naruto, The Shadow of the Leviathan, Rivers of London, Star Wars (movies only), Conclave, Jaws, Labyrinth, Good Omens, and of course original works.
Specific topics of expertise: I can give SPAG notes quickly. For fandoms I'm familiar with, I can give feedback on character voice; for fandoms I'm unfamiliar with, if you can give me some references for character voice, I'll do my best. I can read for clarity and flow. I'd like to think I'm good at third-person limited!
What can you beta and when? (Media, content, length, doc types, availability by calendar):

I can beta fic of any length.

Let me know what sort of feedback would be most useful for you!!

I'm not comfortable reading explicit underage content or on-the-page non-con. (Background or implicit is fine.)

I'd prefer a link to a Google doc with at least commenter access, ideally editor access. I usually leave suggested edits and comments that way.

For under 15k, I'll try to turn around comments within 2 to 5 days.
