Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Any well known series is good for me but sometimes I may have to ask you about the less well known ones. I have been reading and writing on this site for a long time now so I have a good idea of what writers go through (Writer's Block, I'm looking at you...) and what readers expect in your stories. I have also proven to be a quite capable supermarket of ideas at times.

Oh and one more thing. When you ask for my help please do take it seriously, I will do my part as best as I can but please do yours as well. That being said, I would appreciate it if those who would ask for my help would take a look through their own work first. Make sure that I can actually understand what I'm beta-reading for. :) I would rather not read through pages of senseless muck... much less, be expected to actually to turn those works into something readable. If you really can't write well or have never wrote anything before, then please tell me so I can adjust my level of critique and give you better suggestions than I would otherwise have done. Just tell me what you expect from me. br /br /

Communication is key here. (I apologize for the whole block of text. This site inserts irritating br br lines when I press Enter)

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Grammar, story, drafts and proofreading. I can also suggest plotlines for you and digest massive amounts of story chapters. I tend to be forgiving in reviewing and I have an open mind. I can point the parts of the story where they get off track or when characters veer out of their established characterizations, rather, become... "OC"-like. As long as it is well written, I'd take anything from my Preferences category. Rest assured that I have researched my butt off for those categories. lol

Credentials: I have years of experience of writing under my belt, I'd say that I have a good understanding of the English language even though it isn't my first (maybe my 1.5th?), and I really like reading articles about how to make my work (and yours, should you accept)

You can also decide whether to send me an outline for your story so that I can actually beta your story with future chapters in mind. I've been doing this for quite some time now, so I would say that I have a good idea of what a good fanfic looks like. I'm also online often so you can expect a quick reply. I can be as detailed and as precise as you want me to be. I can also just skim through your work and offer the basic grammar/ spellcheck stuff. (Although if that was all you wanted... Microsoft Word can help you there. Haha) It's all honestly up to you. I also offer my services with a side dish of humor. I believe that a writer and his/her betas function best as online friends. haha.

My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I tend to be quite impatient with slow people. At times I tend to bombard them and just babble on, not making any sense to other people. Oh and I might not always be online. But not to worry! Be assured that I will work on your masterpiece in my spare time. I also tend to be rather harsh in some of my critique. Especially when your story doesn't make any sense. Of course, communication is always good. Tell me where your story is going, or how it is structured, etc. and then maybe I can understand.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Anything written in my Preferences category, anything that makes sense or at least you can make up a plausible reason for existing, and anything that you feel is well written.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I would rather not accept betas for same gender shipping. I don't have any resentment for people of the 3rd gender but I just don't like stories where I see myself as the MC and they are shipped to a person of the same gender as the MC. I would also rather not beta-read stories that have incomprehensible grammar or poor sentence structure.
