Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi. I've been on this site for awhile (four years in June of '10) and I do a little unofficial beta-ing here and there. I can be blunt, but in a nice way. I'm not going to flame your work--promise. I don't do yaoi/yuri/slash fanfics, sorry. I can usually read through a chapter pretty fast and get it sent it back. If you need a chapter back particularly fast, just let me know. I'm at the end of my junior year of high school and I'm pretty busy so I do have my own life. Writing and beta reading are hobbies of mine. I have my few favorite categories that I like and know a lot about. However, if you want me to just look at the grammer and sentence flow, I'll be happy to do that or if you want to just explain a little bit of the Category's storyline that will be great too. Please no AU or high school stories. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Like I said earlier, I'm honest. I'm not going to overly sugarcoat something, but I'm not going to be rude either. I'm good at cliffhangers, I'm pretty good at descriptions and 99 percent of the time I can keep the flow of a story going and I'm pretty good at keeping characters from being OOC or Mary/Gary Sue-ish. I sometimes make OC, but I'm good at not letting the story revolve around them rather than the original characters. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
In the almost four years on this site, I've improved...but I'm not perfect. I still have a tendency of making chapters short and a little choppy. I'm a bit of a romantic at heart. I guess you can call me a little prejudice because I DO have my favorite pairings, but I'll try to be open minded to (almost) anything you send me. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Let's see...Kingdom Hearts, Teen Titans, the 2010 Alice in Wonderland are a few. I'll take romance, action, adventure, comedy, angst, tragedy...I'm open to almost anything within reason. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
No slash, high school stories, or AU. No High School Musical, Hannah Montana, or Twilight. Sorry. I'm okay with M stories, but nothing too graphic. I'm 17, but that doesn't mean I really want to read it. |
