Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am someone with a keen eye for spelling and grammar mistakes, as well as word choice for tone and mood of a story. I can help with settings, factual mistakes, and better cohesiveness overall. I don't expect anyone to take all my suggestions, but I will make them anyways. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am very in tune with subtle mistakes in spelling and grammar, as well as poor characterization which drives me crazy! |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I have a tendency to want to rewrite entire sentences if they don't seem to flow right, usually turning them inside out. This may seem overbearing to some people. I also have a tendency to use big words, because I love how they sound and there is usually that one perfect word for the feeling you're trying to write. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Anything with anguish and transcendent emotions. I prefer CSI fanfic, though I would be willing to do fantasy books, NCIS, Numb3rs, etc; in short, any show/books I have actually heard of and enjoyed. If I haven't heard of the characters, I could only help with spelling and grammar. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Suicide fics, character deaths, Anime, anything Twilight related, Things involving men who are pregnant. |
