Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I will beta Harry Potter, Artemis Fowl, Twilight, Bartimaeus Trilogy, CSI, Scrubs, Pushing Daisies, Futurama and occasionally X-Files or Quincy, M.E. fics. I'll also beta for any fics based on any of the favorite books in my profile. Any story I beta should have at least a few grammar/spelling mistakes and/or plot inconsistencies, because I am good at catching those. If your story doesn't have the aforementioned problems, I'm afraid I can't help you much in terms of beta-ing. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am an OCD spelling/grammar freak, and will catch + correct most of the mistakes you may make. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not very good at providing suggestions for what should happen next, and I tend to be quite blunt when offering constructive criticism. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I would prefer beta-ing humor/drama/crime fics, because I enjoy reading those in the first place. If your fic has loads of long complicated scientific words in it, I'll probably be able to check them all for spelling errors, as well. As I said below, I'd rather not betaread romance fics, but if it's a good story, I'll betaread for these pairings~
Harry Potter:
~Harry/Ginny ~Hermione/Ron ~Any other canon pairing (i.e. Tonks/Lupin) ~Any non-canon pairings, but I won't betaread slash pairings
CSI:
~GSR (Grissom/Sara) ~Yo! Bling (Catherine/Warrick) ~Wedges (Wendy/Hodges) ~Yet again, I will not betaread slash
Artemis Fowl:
~Minerva/Artemis ~I can't imagine Holly/Artemis, so I will not betaread those, however I will do --> ~Any other pairings
The X-Files:
~MSR (Mulder/Scully)
Quincy, M.E.:
~Emily/Quincy |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I will not betaread romance (you know, the ONLY romance ones? With no outside plot?) fics, because I'm not a big fan of smut. However, if it comes with a good story... |
