Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I've been around this site for almost two years, on and off. Favorite fandom is Fullmetal Alchemist, followed closely by Harry Potter. I'm an advocate of proper grammar and spelling, as well as a cohesive plot that makes the reader think. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
A spelling/grammar stickler.
I'm not the best writer in the world, far from it, but I love words and reading. I have an eye for what looks good (in my opinion) and what doesn't. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm new to being a beta. I'm not sure of how much advice is too much as far non-technical aspects, so bear with me, okay?
I'm also rather young... so I definitely won't catch everything. But, just like I'm trying to become a better writer, I'll try to become a better beta. (Though, if you have a million word masterpiece and you want someone to check for passive voice, comma splices, etc., I'd probably suggest someone else.) |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Well... not really. I truly don't have a preference in stories as long as I don't have a problem with anything (slash, lemons, etc.) |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Slash, M rated material, "fluffy" romance, anything from the Naruto fandom. |
