Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
My fandoms are Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, Lilo & Stitch, and Invader Zim. There are many other shows/pieces of literature I would be willing to beta fic from, but the aforementioned three are the only fandoms I can catch OOCness and continuity errors in. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I have a pretty good grasp of grammar, spelling and the English language. I have a good ear for dialog, i.e. how a character's speech should read when translated to the written word, and I'm good at catching OOCness. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I have a few issues with pacing, and I tend to include too little description of places, settings and such. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
XR, Zim and every member of the main Lilo & Stitch cast- i.e., not the experiments or anyone added in the series, are my favorite characters and I have to admit I find stories without them or with them in small roles less interesting. Couples I like are ZAGR, DATR, Dib/Gretchen, Lilo/Stitch and XR/Mira.
I don't like stories that are focused solely on OCs, but I don't mind the existence of an OC in a fic as long as the original character doesn't take the spotlight from the canons. I WILL tell you if your character is annoying. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
I don't like yaoi or yuri, and Stitch/Angel stories irritate me. Angel and 42 are two characters I don't like reading about and I'd like to avoid them if possible. I'm not a big fan of stories centered around NOS-4-A2, either.
I don't like Lilo & Stitch the Series or the characters it introduced and greatly prefer fiction more closely based on the canon of the original movie.
I don't like excessive language, but I can overlook it if it's necessary to the story. |
