Upcoming beta requests.

So, while my original fiction has been lagging, I have started on a few different fanfic projects (man, it has been too long since I wrote fanfic), and sometime (hopefully soon) I will need beta-readers for them.  I figure maybe if I ask for beta-readers now, before I need them, I will have more motivation to keep writing.

I need:

a)  A beta conversant with Young Wizards canon up through Wizard of Mars, for my birthday gift to capnflynn .  It would help if you have also read the Feline Wizards books, but is not necessary.  I thiiiink this will be about 4-6k words of fic.
b)  Optionally, a beta-reader conversant with Young Wizards who has not read Wizard of Mars, so I can be sure the plot makes sense if you haven't read WoM.

c)  A beta for a lot of Cass & Steph -centric Batgirl ficlets.  I haven't written their characters before, and I want to make sure my voice is right, even if I am just drabbling or writing pointless flashfic, because I am a perfectionist and because they deserve to be well-written.

1000+ words of YA technobabble.

Still vaguely working on Starstuff, the nebulous scifi YA novel I may someday write.  Its rough drafts are much, much rougher than my usual, which tells me that this narrator really isn't done cooking yet, but I wrote something today that might be of interest:  the tech used in this universe for long-distance spacetravel.  For sublight, there's a diametric drive, and for FTL, there's a wormhole-creating machine.

My grasp of astrophysics and theoretical physics is very weak.  So I am not at all sure that I am describing these concepts correctly, and I am certainly not sure if my attempt to give a practical, Bill-Nye-ish explanation to young readers is at all comprehensible.

So if you are an astronomy or physics nerd, and this sort of thing interests you, please, read what i've got here and
