Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
If you select me as your beta-reader, you can expect me to go over each paragraph as thoroughly as a high school English teacher while at the same time identifying the strengths and weakness of your unique style. Grammar, punctuation, spelling-- these shall be your plagues no more. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I have worked as a proofreader for college papers and collaborated with many different authors in varying genres and styles. Grammar is definitely my strongest point. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
As a beta-reader I feel I could best use improvement in the manner in which I deliver my critique. I tend to give the bad news in a manner-of-fact way that doesn't mince words: this scares off more sensitive authors, which is hilarious because I'm one of the most critique-supersensitive authors I know. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I'll read just about anything! But if you want me to be able to tell if your portrayal of non-original characters is accurate you'll have to pick something I know. I know there's no list-- just ask me! |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I'll try anything once. Nothing to list here yet. |
