Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
As a beta-reader, my aim is to be a safe resource to develop ideas and produce the best version of your ideas. I'm most interested in getting the most out of your story. If you're looking for a quick edit to a sounding board for character or plot development, just PM this account. I'll get back to you asap and we can talk logistics and all that as need be. I expect for our interactions to be based out of mutual respect and an appreciation of writing and the piece of work you're inspired to write from. Anything I suggest is just that, a suggestion. At the end of the day, your story is your story and you know it best. I'm excited to hear from the great writers and minds FF holds! br /br / I'm good to read for any section of FF (anime, plays, books, whatever) for English grammar and style. I would go through the trouble of detailing which of which I prefer but I honestly will read whatever. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm great at English grammar and style. This would pertain to correct usage of English words as well as the best usage of English words. Editing for style would be concerned with maintaining your voice as a writer in the most meaningful way. I'm also a really attentive reader. I will have questions about your work that I hope will enhance your end product. I like thinking about why a character is doing something and why the story is happening the way it is. I also have a pretty strong general background knowledge in history and education. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Commas, ha. Besides that, I think my eye in editing is sometimes biased towards my own writing style. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'm all in for good romance stories. Pretty much any sub-genre that falls underneath that. [Related to that, I'm not comfortable editing sex scenes; but the work surrounding it I would be.] I'm also interested in fantasy, comedy, friendship, family, parody, some drama, and some angst. I also would be interested in reading period/era centered. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I'm not into super dark or disturbing plot lines wherein that is the main focus of the story. I would also prefer not to betaread for stories that presented the following positively: pedophilia, sexual abuse, domestic abuse, emotional abuse, racism, sexism, and the related. br /br /br /br /br / br /br / br / br /br /br / br / br /br / br / br /br /br /br / br / br /br / br / br /br /br / br / br /br / br / I don't read a lot of action, mystery, western, suspense or horror. I would still be game to edit for grammar and style though for all except horror. |
