my life as a wombat :: seriously, people!
If there is one piece of fannish wisdom that the fanfic-writing corner of fandom needs to forever take to heart, it's that your beta reader actually needs to know something about spelling, punctuation, and grammar. For instance, I can justify using the Oxford comma in the previous sentence but does your beta even know what an Oxford comma is?
This brief moment of snarkiness brought to you by my recent encounter with the following: This chapter has now been ebta'd by [name withheld]. For a moment, I found myself wondering, "what's an 'ebta'?!" before reason reasserted itself.
Seriously, people!
cross-posted and all that...
