Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am here to help the writer. I know how much a story can improve with a little behind-the-scenes help, and that if a writer and a reader only take the initiative this improvement can be humongous and much-appreciated.
I will read through just about any type of fic, and I will give advice as I see is necessary. If there is a grammatical or spelling error, I will tell you or fix it myself. I don't expect the writer to follow all advice, nor change the voice they're seeking because of something a reader or myself have said.
Communication is the key. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Spelling, grammar, characterization and flow are my strong beta points. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Gargling at something truly fantastic and just not being meticulous enough. As a writer, I'm pretty weak in organization so one must assume that the same is true for beta-reading. |
