cimorene: cartoony drawing of a woman's head in profile giving dubious side-eye (i am the others)

do you usually find that it's a good sign or a bad one when the title comes to you before the story?  that happened to me in the shower two days ago.  I ended up with this. 

now i need a british person with experience of harry potter, preferably snape/potter, and preferably also greek mythology, to beta a story.  ...please?





...
the barbarism of a computer that ISN'T hooked continuously to the internet!  it's like a blind and deaf computer.  wearing gloves.  that doesn't know anything.

ps:  omg i forgot.  we passed a billboard on the way from the atlanta airport for PANTS STORE.  it turned out that my parents didn't know any of the british meanings of pants, literal or slang.

British. Experience of Harry Potter. And some Greek mythology. That said, I'll probably be no help at all, but if you tell me what you want... :)

no help at all: does this mean you aren't habitually of the beta persuasion, or what?

Pretty much. Good on details though, à la Greek mythology and British syntax. Bad on Telling You What to Do With Your Story, but I suspect you know what to do with your story. Try me :)
