Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hello. I've beem betaing for a few people writting for The X-Files now, so I thought I might just publish it in my profile. Well, as a betareader, I will usually point out the corrections or changes I have made in you story, at the end of each chapter, just so you know WHAT exactly was change and WHY I changed it. Ofcourse, as I always remark at the bottom, just because I have betaed it, does not mean you have to obligatorily change it. I believe that author's always have their reasons for their writting and that sometimes it's best to leave words, sentences, or paragraphs as they are.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am very honest with my reviews, but I won't be mean! I promise.



I can read and asimilate better ways of saying the same thing. For example is someone keeps saying "She kept looking at him" I can change it into other phrases such as "She gazed at him intently" or "Her eyes seemed to be captivated by him".



I am a fluent English and Spanish speaker, so I can offer very good translations in these two languages.



I'm good at character mind flow.



I tend to be very in character as it pertains to Mulder and Scully. Oh, and I like to have your stories betaed out as soon as possible!
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm always honest with my reviews but,I also, always have the author's feelings in mind. I never want to hurt a fellow author's feelings, so you will never catch me giving you a mean comment as to how you write. After all, everyone has their own style or writing!



As said before, I can't get out of character. It's very hard for me to picture the characters behaving a in a diffrent way than they really are or portray in their series. I mean, I can see them in alternate universes and I can picture them in diferent time zones, but as soon as the characters are not behaving as they normally would, with out a good explanation, then I can't read or write any longer.
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I pretty much like any story. I like humor, parody, adventure you name it! I love MSR! If you want a closer look, you can go into my favorites in my profile. I think you'll get a better Idea at what I like :)
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Slash...seriously, WHY? D:



Some types of Smut. I have actually written somewhat smut,and you can tell the type I'm leaning towards too in my writting. But yes I read it nonetheless and can give a critique on it.



I love MSR, I'm a HARDCORE shipper!, but when you make it too loveydovey, I can't handle it. I believe it's very out of character to have Mulder and Scully be so...fluffy. So if you're gonna have them calling each other 'Honey' or 'sugar patootie', without a good reason to back their actions up, you can be sure I'll re-write that or tell you its too out of character.
