Congratulations! Beta-ing takes a special talent that goes beyond just red penciling awkward phrases and correcting spelling and grammar. One must keep the continuity straight, the characters in character, all the while making these suggestions so deftly and tactfully to the author that you don't crush any fragile egos. I honestly would find that part the hardest -- being honest enough to say, "Hey, this doesn't work."
