Name: Anne
Favorite Pairings: I enjoy most Spike pairings, but I've got a soft spot for Spike/Buffy; Angel(us)/Darla,
Willing to Read Slash: Willing to read Angel/Spike in any form. Or any combination of Angel/Darla/Spike/Drusilla. For other Slash pairings, please ask first before sending.
Turn around time: usually about 24 hours, will notify if it'll be longer
Won't Read: Spike/Xander, Angel/Buffy

Name: Annie
Favorite characters: Spike, Willow, Anya

Will you read slash: Yes please
Anything you won't read: Rapefic, incest, really out-there AU (no vampires, no slayer), Buffy-bashing
Expected Turn around: Three to four days
Strengths: I'm a grammar queen/nerd, good speller, good with catching holes in the story, characterization, and cannon details.

Name: Belle
Strengths: Good with grammar, characterization, spelling, punctuation, will read anything
Other notes: send in Word2000 if possible

Name: Brenda
Preferences: Welcome to any storyline or any ship.
Dislikes: none.
Strengths: Avid Anya fan. Will help hash out problems and give advice on grammar points. Basically an English major sick of reading about the Theoretical Prospects of Poverty in Western Europe in the Late Eighteenth Century. If you are having trouble writing Anya this I am the one to ask. Fairly obsessed enough to play her in an RPG.
Other notes: Please give notice in the submit of fanfic of what help you are looking for.

Name: catatonic1242:
Favorite characters: Spike, Anya, Tara, Giles
Favorite pairings: Spuffy, Spander, Spangel, anything involving Spike
Will you read slash: Happily
Anything you won't read: I'll read it all, although I don't particularly enjoy whiny! Dawn or Riley Sucks fic.
Expected Turn around: About a week
Strengths: I'm good with the history of the show (determining what is and isn't canon) and with making stylistic suggestions

Name: Larilyn
Preferences: I have a love of history, so I would be helpful if any one wants to delve into Spike and Anya's past.
Dislikes: I don't enjoy reading m/m slash, but I don't think that will be a big problem on a Spike/Anya site.
Strengths: I also have some knowledge about witchcraft.
Turn Around Time: I read and review pretty quickly and I do give constructive criticism.

Name: Libby
Preferences: Well written stories with valid characterizations. More Anya. I like Spike. Good smut is always entertaining. Minor characters can be interesting (Jonathan, Harmony). Humor is good. Consensual slash is fine by me. Humorous mysteries with some smutty romance are my ideal.
Dislikes: Rape, canon character death, character bashing or poor characterization (Anya, Giles, and Xander are more than just horny, stuffy, and goofy), songfic, sap (yes, I know Spike is romantic, but don't get silly -- he's a bad rude man). Slash is fine, but unless it's Spike/Angel or Willow/Tara, there should be a leadup. With Anya involved I could see some threesomes going on :)
Strengths: I am a perpetual student and freelance journalist, so my editing skills are pretty good. I also love to read!

Name: Tania
Preferences: In Canon stories, love season 4 and season 7 Spike/Anya.
Dislikes: Human Au.
Strengths: Canon checking, historical accuracy, characterization, spelling, grammar.
Turn Around Time: one two two weeks depending on length, email first for very long stories.

Name: Winter
Preferences: Any Rating. Would enjoy a S/X/Ay threeway.
Strengths: grammer, punctuation, story flow, characterization.
Other notes: I can be pretty picky but it's only because I'm trying to help you write a better fic!
