Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I tend to the obsessive-compulsive side where typos and punctuation are concerned. I will make minor corrections myself but where plot is concerned, I will more likely leave you pointers as to how you can improve your writing. It's not betareading if I do all the work for you.
I do expect that all who wish to ask for my help can at least capitalize and put in basic punctuation.
I am willing to help those who do not speak English as a first language. I understand that writing in a different language can be difficult for many. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am best at helping with basic plot, typographical errors and descriptions. I can help find synonyms where overused words are...well...used. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I can sometimes skip over errors, if they are extremely minor. I can miss a misplaced comma or a very minor misspelling. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I have no real preferences when it comes to beta-ing stories. Anything, as long as there is a root idea (not necessarily a plot) is fine with me. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I will not betaread some smut stories, for example, if the plot IS the smut, I will not betaread. |
