hilsToday is apparently Love Your Beta Day
I seriously cannot put into words how much I appreciate the hard work and time beta readers put into what they do. My fics would be poor and awful if it weren't for them, and it's certainly not a job I could do. To me beta work isn't just correcting spelling and grammer, it's looking at plot and character motivations and style.
So, I would like to send thanks out to all the people who have done beta work for me over the years, or who have just been willing to look over stuff and check the characterisations are ok. Not all of them are on LJ any more but I appeciate them nontheless
So, hoping I haven't forgotten anyone, I would like to extend warm and heartfelt thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Summary: When it comes to cheating death, one chance in a million is better than no chance at all, irrational as it may be. The same could be said for living.
The conclusion to Helix should be up in an hour or two (it grew into a monster at almost 5000 words for this last part) and then I'll be beta'ing your snippet. It looks really good at my first readthrough. :-D
