Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I've been a writer since elementary school, when I was writing fanfiction before I even knew what it was. I've been on fanfiction.net a long time, since 2001, so I know how this works. Fanfiction is something that means a lot to me. It cultivated my imagination and my need to create. I want to be able to help young writers become better.

I'm very open minded.

I like to help flesh out a story. I'm a little harsh when it comes to storyline, but that's only because I want your story to not have plot holes and be the best it can be.

I'm willing to beta Yaoi/Yuri, het couples, smut, AU, most cross-overs, pretty much anything but mpreg.

Here is how I would like this to work:

1. Ask me to beta.

2. If it is an existing story, let me catch up. When I am caught up, I will let you know.

3. Email me your rough draft.

4. I will take 2-3 days to beta it. Most of my changes are suggestions for you to take or leave. Some of the changes will be grammatical errors, which you should probably keep. All of my changes and suggestions will be in bold. I will leave you my suggestions and comments at the end of your chapter. Then I will give you back your story.

If you'd like me to take another look at your chapter, I am more than happy to do so. We can go over it as many times as you want.

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm excellent with grammar.

I'm proficient at spelling.

I get pretty neurotic when it comes to characterization; I dislike out of character-ness. I can recognize it pretty quickly and will help correct it.

I'm great with dialogue.

I will usually get your story back to you within three days.

My main fandom is Gundam Wing. I've been writing it for 10 years, and at this point, I'm extremely good with characterization. I'm very good with canon, so if you need me to help with details, or you want me to be detail oriented, I will.

My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I find it difficult to get people out of plot holes.

I'm a little bit harsh with criticism. I usually try and temper criticism with things you've done right, but that doesn't always happen.

Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'd rather beta things in fandoms I'm familiar with. I won't do a very good job if I don't know the fandom, because then I don't really know where you're coming from. With Gundam Wing, I'm extremely familiar with Heero/Relena (1xR). They are the couple that I prefer reading and writing for. I am open to all couples from Gundam Wing as long as it doesn't include MPREG, non/dub con or character bashing.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I won't beta (nor will I read) anything with character bashing.

I don't do MPREG.

I won't do Non-Con or Dub-Con.
