I had a beta tell me once that sentences were not mini-buses (still have that problem, but I digress); she then turned around and flailed all throughout the rest of the fiction. One of the most memorable statements was 'I love this so hard I could barf cupcakes!! OMG!'
After I was finished laughing, I stopped to think it through. There was more squee than correction - and when I beta (poorly) that's usually what happens with me. More squee than correction, lol!
One of the most memorable statements was 'I love this so hard I could barf cupcakes!! OMG!' That is an amazing statement!
And in this case there was not a lot to fix, to be honest, except little typos etc - the complicated bits (tone, continuity, characterisation etc) was all spot-on. So I allowed myself to indulge. :)
Isn't it? *Beams* I'll remember that when I'm 80. Maybe not what it was about or why - but that is just the kind of thing that sticks in your mind. *Laughs*
Well, you two rather rock hard, lol!! I can easily see where there was little to fix (but plenty to get excited about). You are both...just that awesome. *Nods* And who can resist a good squee (and why should they?!)

And who can resist a good squee (and why should they?!) Indeed.
