Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I concentrate mostly on grammar and tenses. Occasionally, I also check on spellings. I try my hardest not to stray away from the original intent of an author when I beta. And for fear that I might not stress this enough, I am picky with my pairings.
The pairings I favor in no particular order:br /
HermionyPansy GinnyLuna (Harry Potter)br /
NaotoRise ChieYukiko MitsuruYukari (Persona/Megami Tensei)br /
AkiraYurika (Rival Schools)
TifaAeris RikkuYuna (Final Fantasy)

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Third person stories is on top of the list although I can read first person POV well too. I have sufficient experience in the world of grammar and spelling. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I tend to be lazy. Or when a part doesn't interest me, I skip a few paragraphs. I'm quite choosy when it comes to the anime/game from which the fanfic is all about. If a fanfic will be rated M, I normally skip certain scenes, if you know what I mean. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Yuri or shoujo-ai is my specialty. Basically any genre I can read with no problem. However, again, I am particular about the pairings. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Yaoi and shounen-ai, mostly. And generally every hetero pairing in existence. |
