The next testing period begins on 1st November, 2011

Thank you for your interest in becoming an official PI beta reader. You must be at least thirteen years of age to apply, and before you can be listed in our directory you must pass a simple test that will give us a general idea of your abilities. There are also a few standards we ask all PI Beta Readers to uphold. They are as follows:

You must actually have time to devote to any and all works you take on.

You must check your email at least once every 7 days.

If you are overwhelmed, it is perfectly okay to decline a preliminary email. Do not take on more than you can possibly accomplish; it lessens the quality of your work.

If you take on an author's work, you must remain in contact with them. We understand that you may not be able to read, correct and return a long chapter with in a week. Beta Readers have lives too. We do ask, however, that you send an email at least once a week to let the author know how your work is coming along.

Once you fill out the form, you will recieve your test, attached in a ".doc" or ".rtf" format. You will have one month exactly from the date and time you recieve the test to complete it. The specific instructions for completing it will be included in your email.

The test is designed to test your knowledge of canon, as well as your ability to find and correct mistakes of characterization, spelling, grammar (British English), and plot. In addition, any comments you make in regards to style will be considered when the test is corrected.

If you fail the test, you must wait until the next testing period to apply again. You will recieve detailed information about the mistakes you made, and we will be glad to assist you as much as possible before the next testing period.

If you were listed in the directory previously, you'll unfortunately have to pass another test to be added back. We will work as quickly as possible to have the tests corrected, and will notify you of your grade as soon as possible.

If you would like to become a Beta Reader for any fandom other than the Harry Potter fandom, please disregard this form and contact us.
