Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm willing to help with learning how to write, as long as you like my generalized style with which to begin. I should know that beta'ing comes in a fourth behind my work, my volunteering, and my muses when they attack me. If I can chase them off with a stick for a while, I usually will get back everything to you within a week. I am never available in November, not just because of Nanowrimo but because of my involvement with a volunteering group which does "its" thing in November. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Grammar Nazi- I can catch other people's errors, just not my own. I may give edits to change the wording of a sentence or phrase. My editing/betaing will be more copy editing rather than content-related. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Understanding the voices of characters-I tend to be picky when I read stories, and many times I may not think a character may say such a thing, but I'm really not the best judge. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I prefer shorter stories, or shorter segments within larger works. I also prefer Daniel-centric stories, simply because it is my interest. I do not have a ship or slash preference, and I'll happily edit gen all day long. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
AU's in general. I find that many times they move too far away from the characters I've grown to love. This is different from before/after series works, which I will happily engage in, as I frequently write them myself. |
