I'm willing to do a SPAG check on most things*, as well as commentary on plot and pacing. I probably can't do a detailed canon check on anything, because even if I've read it I don't hold details in my head very well. That said, if I can easily access the canon, and there is enough time, I will do a quick canon refresh prior to a beta read.

I'm fred_mouse at AO3, but don't have anything of my own there (I'm primarily an editor, not a writer). My editing style tends to the 'lots of commentary/comments/suggestions', but I don't care if you completely ignore everything I say.

* I don't do well on unrelenting dark fic, nor do I cope well with non-con or familial violence.
