Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I would prefer to work with fictions that I know about already. These would include: Teen Titans, Harry Potter, Red Dwarf, Chronicles of Narnia, Hitch Hikers' Guide to the Galaxy, Lord of the Rings, and fairy tales.
As a betareader, I tend towards correcting submittals like an english teacher would so that the writer sees what needs correcting so that they learn. I would hold back on offering story line assistance unless requested. I am perfectly willing to recheck rewritten documents. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Quick turn around.
A good grasp of grammar and spelling.
I can read things objectively, even if it is something that I directly oppose. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
My punctuation understanding needs work.
I can be very blunt. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I don't really have a preference, but I do enjoy romance and comedy. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Poetry.
I'd like to avoid stories dealing with suicide, unless the character is recorded as being suicidal in cannon writings. |
