Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi, call me Fiasco. I'm a quick and thorough reader, and I love finding good, new fic. I'm pciky about what I read, and I will tell you so, but I'm never mean about it. When I read your fic, I'll respond as soon as I can. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am a quick reader, and one who is decisive. I'm quite comfortable with grammar, and have a rudimentary knowledge of what connotes good writing. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I won't tell you that your story is awful. I'll do what I can to help you improve, but I won't out-and-out say "it's trash" unless it's really, really bad. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
When I'm reading, I greatly prefer to stay with canon in my preferred fandoms; and beyond that, the pairings I write for said fandoms. While I will read your Miroku/Sango or your Michael/Jan, Inuyasha/Kagome and Jim/Pam simply interest me more, any therefore I will be by default a more diligent reader. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I would prefer to stick to canon pairings, as stated above. Beyond that, I'm not the most comfortable when it comes to yaoi/yuri shonen-ai/shoujo-ai slash/femslash pairings. Nothing against them, but I will not be the least biased reader. In addition, I might not that an AU has to be very, very good for me to like it- and let's not even mention OC pairings. |
