Thank you everyone for listening to me ramble about a hobby! Maybe you'll get into fic too, if you aren't already. :D #ACESChat

@ACESEditors A6 2/2 It’s amazing how much you can learn from projects that you do in your spare time and for fun! I essentially edit for free, but I consider it to be one of the most valuable hobbies in my life. #ACESchat

[Fangirls Anonymous @MandBpresents]

@ACESEditors A6 1/2 I have learned how to collaborate effectively and constructively with people I consider my friends. It can be hard to tell someone that you admire that they need to rewrite an entire section of a work we’ve been working on for eight months. #ACESchat

[Fangirls Anonymous @MandBpresents]

@ae_thepoet @ACESEditors Yes, so true. Beta-ing is usually more give and take. ore of a live conversation. I tend to edit with my writers, and sometimes I'm with them when they're writing. #ACESchat

@ACESEditors A5 Everything in fanfiction is non-traditional. Being a Beta, you get to know your writers very well, and after a time it’s easy to start to think like your writers when editing their works. To be a good Beta, you have to be flexible and stay on your toes. #ACESchat

[Fangirls Anonymous @MandBpresents]

@Editrix_Rachel I haven't read that, or even heard of it! I'll totally be finding that when this is over. If the author was a Beta in fandom I'm sure it's somewhat realistic! Hopefully there wasn't too much drama. Beta-ing is fun :D #ACESchat

[Fangirls Anonymous @MandBpresents]

@snippetsbyAmy @ACESEditors It totally feels like that actually! You really get to know your "band members" too, so you riff off each other and the story just gets more in-depth and interesting. But Betas help to hold it back too! #ACESchat

[Fangirls Anonymous @MandBpresents]

@rhiannonroot @Editrix_Rachel We are doing an episode in Season three about the Anne Rice fiasco and her flipping out over fic for #InterviewwiththeVampire So excited for that one #ACESchat
