Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm new to the betareading thing, but if you'd like me to give it a shot I'll do my best. I tend to put a lot of focus in dialogue and characterization. I think character building is the the most fun, and probably most important part of any story. I prefer the action/adventure themes, with maybe a romantic sideplot. I'm not the kind of person to go for angsty drama, or overly drawn out romances, sorry if you're into that, it's just not my thing. I'd also be happy to review AU fics, as I find them to usually be more interesting and original.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I've been told that I'm good at giving each character their own unique personality and style. Like I said, I put a lot of focus on characterization. I'm also pretty good at writing out battle sequences, so if you want an epic fight scene, or a major battle, then I'm your man.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not good at writing romances. And I tend to be somewhat weak when it comes to descriptiveness, such as surrounding details. I've always been more character focused. Also, being a guy, I'd say I'm not good at stories taken from a female perspective.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
For the last year or so I've been real big on Dragon Age: Origins. But I'm good with fantasy in general. Sci-fi would probably be a good secondary for me as I tend to think the two are almost interchangeable with the only real difference being the level of technology. Like I said above, I prefer the action/adventure stories. I like the hurt/comfort and friendship genres, but I think that a story needs to have some action or something thrown in there to keep me interested, and like I said, I'm fine with romance as long as it's not the central focus.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Not to offend anyone, but I am straight and not at all into stories that feature a homosexual relationship. Also, being a more conservative person, I'm not into graphic sex scenes. I prefer a story without a lot a swearing. Don't get me wrong, cussing doesn't bother me that much, I just there's a lot better ways for a character/writer to express themself.
