Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I read, I write. That's about it. I'm a very straight forward person, but I do tend to babble on if I like the story. Though I can't write it, I can edit angst, drama, etc. I'm browsing stories regularly, but I only update when I can remember to write.
I try to be as kind as possible, but when I absolutly can't stand it...well, I apologize in advance. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm overloading with ideas. Just ask me~!
I can help with original characters, adding flaws to make them more human (Or whatever else they may be). Scene and character descriptions are one of my strengths. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Grammar and vocabulary are crucial in editing. Still, I can honestly say, they are not my strengths. I'll try my best~!
Also, I have a slight addiction to commas, just so you know. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I enjoy editing stories with depth, a long plotline is always nice. Try to edit some spelling prior to sending the story to me. A long one shot or multi-chaptered stories are appreciated.
Another point, spacing, spacing, spacing! Stories with exceedingly long paragraphs are hard to read, and often results in me getting too lazy.Please try to space stories out evenly. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
No other character pairings, unless they're minor, crossovers tend to confuse me, incest is disgusting, and please, please, no poetry. I am an absolute failure at poetry.
The odd cliche is okay, but when the entire story is made up of it...Please, be creative~! |
