I know this thread was last month topic, but does this topic really fades out?
Well, I just wanted to say that, as an ESL writer I do need all the help I can get. And to BR for someone as hyper as me is an extremely difficult thing to do.
The first time I came here, I asked for a BR. At first, no one accepted that and I decided I should post at least one part of my story so perhaps someone would pity me and would agree to help me. Needless to say my writing was a total disaster, but, fortunately, I got help.
My first BRs were SQD and SuperRoo. One completing each other's job. I couldn't thank them enough everytime I posted a part. I sent them kisses, notworthies... and everything I could to express how grateful I was (And still am) for the changes they made on my writing.
A little after, RL took both girls away, leaving me an orphan on the boards. That's when I met Rachel (psychofurball) who took the position of Best-Reader. She didn't look for grammar, but reassured me everytime I needed it and when I didn't need it either.
Sometimes, for quick things like the MLTVs, I got really nice people who helped me at noodles-speed. I also cant thank them enough.
I must quote something LabRat said:
I do feel guilty about not rushing to answer each and every beta reading ad I see. I like to help - especially if it's a new author, just starting out.
Labby, I'd like to thank you very much for handling this hard task of BRing for a newbie ESL like me. Your comments, your support, and your honesty makes me become a better writer.
Finally, I'd like to thank SQD for letting me return the favor and be her Best-Reader.
As you all know an ESL could never correct grammar from a native speaker so I just Best-Read. I just try to do my best to give back to her all her support and her caring for me and for my stories.
I know I need to work on a few things to improve each day. I know I cant thank all my BRs enough. But let me here show my appreciation for all you guys who BR for someone.
Now that I am a BR myself, I can tell you... we don't receive any money, but what we get in return is priceless.
Thanks for your time. And if anyone wants to BR this post for me... Er... I would accept.
MDL.

is because a certain little bird goes into a bit of a tail-spin midflight when I do things like that, and I want to see all of these fab fics sooner rather than later... rest assured, I'll beat them all out of her and onto the boards eventually. Hear that, Pel?!?
