Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
As a better reader, my overall goal is not to make you feel like the gum on my shoe as I'm scraping it on the sidewalk. I know some people just want to make others feel bad and make themselves feel like a "superior writer," even if they aren't. I will deliver exactly what I see and exactly what I think, but I'm not going to be like, "Wow. You stink. You really need help from the Pink Twinkster, you know that?" Absolutely not. I'm going to give you a well-rounded critique with actual points. No cursing, no ALL CAPS, nothing like that. I, myself, wouldn't want to deal with a person like that.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'd say that I do well at the flow of words. I can just feel what would sound really good in a sentence or a paragraph, or what words might describe a situation. I try really hard to make sure I almost ALWAYS have perfect grammer, correct capitals, where my periods and commas go, everything along that. I really can't stand when there's a spelling mistake, which is one of the main reasons I write almost all of my stories in Microsoft Word, which can correct things I might miss. For the most part, I notice stuff that's spelled wrong on my own.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I think, when I'm writing, I might write "of" instead of "off," or vice versa. Same with "to" and "the." It's not like I'm doing it on purpose; it's like my fingers don't know what they're doing. I rush things in stories sometimes. I'll write a couple chapters, then it's like, BOOM! Three months later. It's just because I'm so excited about what I'm writing, because writing is something I really love to do.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
If you are talking about genre, I really like romance and drama-like stories. Just about anything is accepted, though; but I've always been a hopeless romantic, and I KNOW I'm really dramatic. You can ask any of my friends or my parents; they know how this gal rolls. ;-)
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I really dislike any stories with explict content. I will not beta-read it; I refuse. If you have a couple MILD curse words in your story, I'm sure I could probably get over it. But I will not read anything rated over T. And I also do not read any stories that aren't on my list of what I will read. Which makes sense, if you think about it. :-D Also, when I say "Misc. Anime," I ONLY mean the Tide-Line Blue series.
