Please contact me at morbane@gmail.com. My turn-around time varies: at least 2 days, but up to 1 day per 1k. I will be frequently online throughout the creation period, so I should be able to tell you within 12 hours of receiving your request if I am able to fulfil the request or not.
I'm happy to offer comments on structure, worldbuilding, characterization, etc, or just spelling and grammar, or anything in between. I can also brainstorm, but it's not my strong suit and I'd prefer to do it by email rather than by chat.
I can't critique art.
Please let me know what kind of feedback you're looking for. By default, my procedure is similar to Isis'; I go through a document adding comments about flow, clarity, things that surprised me, things I particularly enjoyed, etc. I occasionally make Google suggestions or tracked changes for simple errors. I also write a summary of my thoughts before sending the document back.
Google docs, Microsoft Word, or Open/Libre Office are all possible.
Although I am happy to beta read fandoms I don't know, here's what I do know:
