Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hey! It's PJOBookWorm! Thanks for checking out my beta reader profile. As a beta reader, I will try my hardest to help you and your fanfic improve! Probably what I'd be most focused on in your fanfic is your grammar and spelling! Grammar and spelling are extremely important, and some people might not read a fanfic because of bad grammar and spelling, even if the story is really good! Next on my list is accuracy. Of course, there are always a few people out there who are a stickler for accuracy and might get enraged if something isn't accurate. And of course I'm focused on other things too. Make sure that if you want me to beta for you, you tell me what you want help with the most on your story. Also, tell me what the story is about and what genres it's in!
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Like I said, grammar and spelling are really important to your fanfic. Some people (and I admit, including me) become annoyed if the spelling and grammar in a fanfic aren't very good and will not read the story because of that, even if the story is really good. I once read this fanfic where the storyline was GREAT, but the grammar and spelling wasn't so much. I kept with the story incase the grammar and spelling improved, but it didn't. Everyone, good grammar and spelling in your stories can enhance them and make them so much better (and easier to read). Grammar and spelling are my strengths, and I can definitely help you with those.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I kind of take a long time to update my stories. I can't get characters exactly in character. Only the creator of the characters can do that perfectly. But I'm working on it! I don't exactly have the widest, most complex range of vocab, despite all the words we've memorized for language arts.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'm basically open to any fanfic from Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Harry Potter, Heroes of Olympus, Kane Chronicles, etc. If you want me to beta for something else, I HAVE to have read the book... Well, unless you really don't care about accuracy and just want to know about grammar... As for genres, I'm open to almost all of them too. I like humor the best!
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I said above I'm basically open to all genres. But one I definitely wouldn't want to read? Horror. I hate scary stuff. I get so freaked out by it. So no ones where someone is murdered unless you don't describe it much and that's not all it's focused on. I also wouldn't like any immature ones. I don't know if I'll be thrilled about beta-ing a story centered around a pairing I don't like. Maybe. Thank you!
