Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Do not be put of by the fact that English is not my first language. I invite you all to read my stories and see for yourself that my style is more than passable (wow, that sounds so conceited).

I haven't Beta read anything yet, so forgive me if I have a few starting problems with the system.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
- making sure the text flows
- grammar (if in doubt I look it up ;))
- spelling (do specify whether you'd like BE or AE)
- characterisation. Granted, sometimes the story only works if one character is somewhat OOC, however, I did once say that Fanfiction is the art of taking one person's creation and twisiting them to your own needs, without losing what lies at the heart of the character. Poetic, I know.
- I can either be nice or harsh, whatever you prefer
- I'll try to leave you your style
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
- I am lazy. Don't be afraid to tell me to get a move on. However, I like reading and correcting and if I like doing something I'm usually not lazy about it.
- I do have a social life (after many many years of not having one), so sometimes I simply won't have time. I'll inform you of this though ;)
- send/sent, build/built - those things. I've no idea. Maybe I should look it up...
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
There are few pairing which I really cannot stand, as listed below. Furthermore I prefer slash over het. Whether that's boy on boy or girl on girl does not matter. Smut scenes are okay, but I can't write them for the life of me, so don't expect to many tips on those.
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Hermoine/any male who is not a Weasley (especially Snape!!!)
Harry/female (unless it's really interesting)
Snape/female

Badly written smut, especially between girls. If I get one of those I'd love to rip it apart, however, I fail at writing it myself, so... no ripping. And therefore no reading either.

That's it for now...
