Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I love beta work (as long as it's not my own stuff XD). I have a unique style and am very hardworking. I also speak French and a bit of Spanish so if you want to use some foreign language bits I can help. As for expectations. I'd like it if you said I beta'd it in your work, not mandatory but always appreciated. I also expect not to be bothered every single minute. I'll help but I'm not a slave. I also love advising on HOW to make things better. I also know the difference between Canadian and American spelling. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm fairly good at differences such as your/you're etc. It's my talent. I usually notice if words are spelled wrong and every story I read I usually notice an error. Of course I'm not fool proof. I'm also fairly skilled at research. I also notice American vs. Canadian spelling trust me there's a difference in the way the words are written. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
This is funny three minutes ago I had all these weaknesses now I can't remember them. I tend to be a little too over critical. I'm not the best but I'm willing to work hard and become better. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I prefer stories on things I know. I also like stories with a bit of humour and some romance. Of course romance is not necessary. Neither is humour for that matter. Also some of you may notice I have some specific preferences. You don't HAVE to have one of those for me to beta it, there are lots of things I didn't put in specifics that I could have. So I advise, try it. I'll try almost anything. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I don't really have any specific dislikes. Except for stories that are just a couple sentences, stories that go 'and then and then' and some other obvious things. |
