Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I will beta VERY rarely, and VERY selectively, because I don't have time to beta a lot. Sorry.
I will correct your grammar/spelling, but if your fic is at the point where I have no clue what's going on, I will send it back and tell you to make it coherent, please.
Also, I will put your fic into MS Word and use the comments function, so make sure you know how to read those. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am excellent with checking grammar/spelling/format. I read quickly, and will try to respond quickly. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I will be perfectionistic and nitpicky. I will probably not be too critical about the story unless it's confusing. However, I may not be able to beta at specific times when I am busy out of my mind. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
only for communities I read/write, including what is listed in my preferences. For misc. games, I will beta Aveyond (or related) only. Within misc. anime, or if you're otherwise not sure, PM me and ask.
Genres, I prefer humor, angst, that kind of thing. If it's romance, make it canon, unless you know me well enough to know my preferred not-completely-canon pairings. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
yaoi (unless you know me and my limits here), yuri, pwp, really anything too R-rated for sexual reasons, most noncanon romances (if you're not sure, ASK), and marysues...especially not marysues. also, please do not send me stories that have not been spell/grammar checked at all. I don't mind catching the ones your spellcheck doesn't see, but, ultimately, I'm your beta, not your spellcheck. |
