Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am a very dedicated beta-reader who enjoys giving very thorough beta-reads about characters and plot. If you have a very character driven story or one with a super interesting and complicated plot then I'd love to read that. I love discovering little nuances' in plots or helping an author develop their characters more. I'm not afraid to give harsh-criticism. If I think that an entire scene needs to be re-written then I'll gladly tell you. Please do a basic grammar check at least. I would hope that the majority of my time that I use betareading your story will be devoted towards making it a better story. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm very good at picking out little grammatical errors that Word doesn't always catch. Developing characters and figuring out plot holes are amongst my favorite things to do when it comes to writing. I enjoy humor and helping you become a better writer. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Dialogue, I usually have trouble figuring out if dialogue is natural or not. I also can over-dedicate myself to beta-reading projects so my response time usually is around one week. I'm also not the best person for really heavy romance. I prefer something to be driving the plot other than over-active horomones. Fair warning: I'm also a tad sarcastic so some things that I say might come off worse than intended. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Anything with well-developed characters and an interesting plot or concept. I think of stories like puzzles that need to be put together, if you're blatantly telling me everything that's going to happen or your foreshadowing is terrible than I'm probably not going to enjoy it. I'd be happy to help you develop that though. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Anything with a lot sex, especially if it does absolutely nothing for the plot. |
