Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi, my name's Bonnie, I am 15 and live in Scotland, though I speak (and write!) standard English. I am currently taking English GCSE and my tutor has told me I am near professional level.
I adore writing and I'm constantly making up fics and normal fiction.
My current obsession is Pirates of the Caribbean, though I basically get obsessed very easily and I also love Doctor who, Torchwood, Heroes, Harry Potter, Discworld, Georgia Nicholson and Oliver! (the 1968 musical and the version with Robert Lindsay and Andy Serkis).
I will read the book soon. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I like correcting spelling, grammar and all the rest - I know. I'm weird. I am also very good at picking up on Americanisms like "gotten", "mom", "could of" and "off of" as I am half American, but live in Britain with my English mum. I enjoy reading enormously and I am good at keeping characters in character! I specialise in Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, Doctor Who/Torchwood and Discworld, but I'm good at more than that, so try me. I can correct spelling/grammar etc. regardless of topic, but I can't check characterisation if I don't know the subject. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I have been known to overuse commas and misuse semi-colons, but I think I'm improving! I also haven't got ther most spare time at the moment so longer fics might take me... um... forever! |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Pirates of the Caribbean is a long love of mine, Sparrabeth in particular, Harry Potter, Discworld, Heroes, Lost, Doctor Who, Torchwood, etc.
I adore fluff. Send me fluff!
And I love comedy, too.
I also quite like M rated fics. I am a rather de-sensitised 15-year-old, haha! Although I *obviously* don't have personal experience in the smutty kind of stuff, I have read alot of that kind of fic, and written a couple, so I'm not bad. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I'm not normally big on slash, but I have exceptions (Harry/Sirius for instance), so you can try me. Also if it's kind of jokey I don't mind. I'm not really bothered about angst unless there's a lot of it and it's really angsty. |
