Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi, I usually do a mixture of beta-reading and commenting/suggesting different wording/phrasing. It's easier for me if you are able to receive Open Office Documents and download through an email, however, I can adjust to many different styles. I have been writing for over 10 years and have been on fanfiction.net for over six. I am comfortable beta'ing for any series I know and even some I don't [Note: Will do: Harry Potter Will Never Do: Twilight]. I am also fast when beta'ing and will respond within a day or two, that is a promise.

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm good at rephrasing and suggesting different ways to make the story flow. I don't automatically change the work but rather offer criticism for you to go back and change it yourself. Unless it is a spelling or grammar mistake you'll have to read over the beta'ing. I have also been on ff.net to know what rules apply and what don't, I am pretty friendly as well. And I am always quick to respond.
FAST RESPONSES! |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm a perfectionist and can sometimes get overly-critical. I'm not exactly harsh but I do give a lot of critique and I'm not 100% perfect on grammar |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Harry Potter and Fruits Basket are my top preferences
I am also comfortable with: Aishiteruze Baby, Azumanga Daioh, Ouran High School Host Club, Bleach, Naruto, Chobits, Sailor Moon, and a lot of movie/TV ones.

Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
