Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I love writing, and I love reading. I'm studying English at the moment, and creative writing. I'm happy to check for technical stuff and also canon etc. I prefer tightly plotted stories, although character studies are good as well.
I write or have written for: Stargate Atlantis, Stargate SG1, Bones.
I have also read Buffy fiction, particularly Spike-centric stuff. I love the idea of beta-reading, of helping an author who is willing to seek advice and assistance in producing a better piece of writing. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm good at spelling (English rather than American though), punctuation and grammar. I hope I can also help with plot/continuity aspects. I'm hot on character consistency and fitting in with canon. I'm also interested in all aspects of good writing, from plot to characterization and setting. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Being British, I can't check up on Americanisms. I'd say that was probably my greatest weakness. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I prefer gen stories, particularly those that work like the canon, but with more characterization. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I'm not desperately interested in really fluffy stuff, and even less interested in heavy/slash type stuff (at least not to beta; I might read them now and again!). |
