Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Alright, in terms of experience, I've beta'd several fics through this site. My betareading style consists of three different parts:
1) I'll read the fic first to get an understanding of the storyline.
2) After reading the fic, I go re-read the fic again and highlight or bold the areas of concern.
3) And lastly, I'll write a little report at the end of the chapter giving advice on how to improve. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am very strong in the area of spelling. I will go through a text several times to make sure that everything is nicely arranged. I can also make sure your characters are true to their canon selves, that the plot flows well, and that the story is interesting and easily read. I will do all of this, however, while preserving the writer's original style and ideas. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I myself, am not a great writer. I have a tendency to waffle on about nothing. I also, have issues when trying to explain something. Which results in, empty spaces in the sentence/paragraph. To sum this whole paragraph up? I'm basically, not a very good descriptive writer. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
No preferences. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I will not betaread the following: Male Pregnancy (that's too weird even for me), crossdressing and any fic with a popular pairing. |
