Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi everyone! Who am I as a beta-reader? Hmm well I am happy to beta-read for anyone who needs some help with anything from sentence structure, punctuation to plot ideas. I'd be delighted to assist a writer in anyway they want, apart from write their story for them, obviously :) If you would like me to beta-read for you then you can expect me to be very thorough with your work and put myself into it 100%, but you should also be prepared for my feedback, with regards to whatever you've asked for help with. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am a grammar and spelling demon, it is something that I was taught to be very thorough on and I still am today. I'm reasonably well read and I enjoy reading, so anything you can throw at me I will do my absolute best with. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I do like to spend a lot of time examining my/your work, so if you want a really speedy beta-reader then I'm probably not for you. It probably would take me a day or two to turn around a chapter of 1000-2000 words, assuming I'm not on holiday. Also I write in English UK, if you understand what I mean, so if your using American English it might take me a bit longer. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I am completely open to whatever kind of story you want me to read, my only hope is that you should have a plan to keep the story going to the end, even if it takes a while. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I have no preferences to what I will or will not read. |
