Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I write wrestling fanfictions, mainly aiming around John Cena and Maria, Jaria, my facorite pairing. I used to write the kind of stories where there was abuse in a relationahip then the hero of the story, who was in love with the woman being abused, saves her. Then they run off together. That's why I stopped writing those stories. Now, I write more unrequited love or unseen love. It just seems more realistic than in every story someone gets raped ot something. Instead it is multiple ways of two people falling in love, or one person falling in love while the other doesn't realize it. It's kind of cliche for love stories but once I get more comfortable with those and think of better ideas, I'll prbably start to branch out and write new stories with new ideas.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Writing happy people and writing humorous lines in my stories are what I do best. I love making people laugh and if I really like the line, I laugh at my own jokes when I reread my stories. I reread my stories just for spelling check and to see if it's ok. I am a strong writer at first person points of view. I find it easier to put myself in the person's shoes when teh story says "I did this" or "She looked at me with tear stained eyes". It makes me see what the author is trying to say, or helps the reader see what I want them to see.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
When I try to write someone sad, I write them as blaming someone else or spiteful of what they did. Not sorrowful, but scornful. And when I write someone on a date or flirting. I can't capture the true feelings that I want them to feel. I always find that hard.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Well, I prefer wrestling romances. I'm not exactly sure why but I think it's because I want what's happening in the story to actually happen to someone or -- even more personal-- myself. Letting me put myself into the main characters shoes helps me to like the story more.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I don't like to read supernatural stories. I try to make things seem as believeable as possible because I think it would be really cool if these things did happen in real life. I want my readers to have a clear vivid picture in their head and they can't picture something that doesn't seem realistic or I don't describe it in the way I see it in my mind. I want the readers to see the picture I painted in my head.
