Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'll say this up front: I'm an active beta-reader, editor, peer-reviewer, etc. If I have a question, I'll ask. If I don't agree with the grammar, I'll tell you. I don't really have a style or anything... unless you specify something, I will just read for errors, in areas including (but not limited to): grammar, consistency, spelling, plot holes. I am here to offer my services and opinions :)
and just because I don't list a category as a preferred one, it doesn't mean won't do it... I just Probably won't.. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I read a lot, so I like to think I know what to look for. I know I myself make mistakes, but it is easier to edit someone else's writing rather than my own. I myself would like a beta... =D |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
you might not agree with everything I say... and I completely respect that. I know that I can be a harsh editor/beta, but I don't expect you to take every suggestion to heart. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
one-shots are nice to read. I like stories with action/adventure, and romance... and humor :D |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I won't read any Yaoi fics, so don't ask. also, I will not read any stories that center around Mary-Sues, spotlight-wanna-be Original Characters, or stories involving some fan being sucked into the story-world.
I will not read anything Naruto, LOTR... especially if it requires knowing the original material. |
