Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm fairly new at beta-reading but I am good at picking up on spelling and grammer mistakes. I am also good at suggesting style and wording changes when I think it would suit the story better.
I'd like to beta for people who are both new to the site and old hands! I love new ideas. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm quite good on grammer and others have told me that I have a good style. I'm also at the top of my reading group with a varied vocabulary and good spelling. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I sometimes cannot see fragmented sentences when tired and I am British so if you happen to be American (or if you use American English) you'll probably prefer to go to an American beta. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I love Sci-Fi/Romance or Romance/Drama type stories but would be happy to help with all types listed in my preferences. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
There are only a few stories I won't beta. Slash, (not that I have anything against gay people I just don't like slash stories) or stories with graphic adult content (Sex, abuse etc). I also hate trying to work out text speak, so please don't send me anything written in that. |
