Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I used to teach English, so I'm quite capable of catching grammar and punctuation, as well as style.
What I'd normally do is take the story in DOC format and mark corrections with red text, along with commentaries and suggestions. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I have a speech engine that makes the computer read the story out loud. You won't believe how many errors that catches!
I also taught English for 4 years at a local school, including grammar, punctuation, literature, composition, and vocabulary, so I know what I'm talking about. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Though I have a slight case of dysgraphia, thus requiring several correction passes for my OWN fanfics in order to get them right, which includes the speech engine mentioned. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Right now I'll start with Kids Next Door, Hey Arnold, and Tiny Toons Adventures. I'll try to do a bit of Jimmy Neutron as well. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Please, NO ANIME, no Script formats, and if your story is a cross-over, let me know what shows are involved because I'm may not be familiar with them.
You'll also note I included all ratings, but the higher ones must have literary merit and not just have gratuitous content. |
