Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm flexible. Ooh, yes, isn't that just smexy? Hm. Okay, more seriously now. I am actually flexible, physically and... beta-lly. I'll do whatever you tell me to. With pleasure.
Oh dear lord it's STILL suggestive! I'm horrible... |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Spelling? Everyone's good at that, though. It's not hard with a spell checker. I do however pride myself on being slightly more than half decent at characterization, and getting sentences to sound good. And while that sentence didn't really help my case there, I actually am quite good at it. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Commas. Damn the tricky bastards. I don't have a clue where they go in proper English and I really don't care. I put commas where I like them and THEY better damn well like it too. That said, proper grammar is a weakness for me. I just make my sentences sound good. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Pfft. Preferred? I dunno. Romance? I'm a huge sucker for romance. I guess I could say my preferred types of stories are those featuring my favourite couples. And those favourite couples are MarcusIvanova (B5), JC (ST:VOY), SamJack (SG1), SamJanet (also SG1), FryRiddick (Pitch Black/Riddick), and RoslinAdama (BSG). |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Excessive smut? And I mean REALLY excessive, because don't get me wrong, I like smut. Excessive, for me, is defined somewhere along the lines of venturing into the realms of bondage and other such kinky things. Generally, it's just a bit too OOC for me to handle. Really, while Laura Roslin in leather with a whip is a charming thought, I don't think she'd be into it. |
