That seems like it would work, and also be the best way. Just have a bunch of volunteer editor's names, and the prospective writer can choose whomever they want. That way it's all up to them. I don't consider that lazy; no no. That's smart! It's delegating! Mwhahahahahaha...
I've already voiced my willingness to help timechaser out, so I'll broaden that to include others. I've done plenty of editorial work in the past, and am willing to read through pretty much any kind of work - just no shounen ai/yaoi, thank you much. I could probably manage 2-3 per week.

I can do some beta-reading, if it's a couple things a week. I already beta for a couple people over at other fanfic sites, so I don't have that much extra bandwidth (plus life is pretty busy).

I'd rather see in shades of gray.

Hehe . . . the way I see it, I'll just have a list sitting for people to look at, and they can pick and choose from there.
It's a lazy means to do it, but I think it'll work.

Sounds interesting. I already do this kind of thing for my floor in rez, so why not here? I'm game to do some every once in a while.
Just definitely no fanfics.

I'm sure you will get plenty of beta-volunteers for this.

Well I have nothing but time on my hands, so I'll volunteer. I've done editing before (plus I didn't get that English degree for nothing, I think).

You know I'm game. I can do both fiction and general essays. You already employ me, anyway.

Let me get back on you on this. Not something I would mind doing, but I need to check a few things.
