Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm an active fan fiction writer that has been writing fic for about five years. As the profile shows, I am most active in the NCIS fandom, but I have dabbled in Torchwood and Doctor Who. I have done betaing work before, and I am currently the beta of FF.Net author, Kandon Kuuson. I am however, a pretty slow beta, so please don't expect things overnight (I have a life beyond the computer). I mostly pick up on grammar or formatting issues, but I also comment on characterisation and add suggestions (dialogue usually). I will beta nearly anything, except for anything with high sexual content. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am good with grammar, formatting and characterisation (especially for NCIS). I am more of a dialogue girl, than a description girl, but can work with both. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I am a weak speller, which is why I rely on spellcheck a lot of the time. I'm also not that good at keeping track of plot or spotting plot holes. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I prefer angst, hurt/comfort, tragedy, drama . . . really all the sad genres. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I will not beta anything with high sexual content. |
