Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I love to betaread. Honestly, I do. I'd love to be an editor someday and this is excellent practice for that job! Usually when I betaread, I read the chapter/story overall first one time. Then I go through line by line and carefully edit it, I read it again, check for mistakes I missed the first time around and finally check it once more, then it's ready! If I betaread for you, my only request is that I be able to tell you about the chapter I just betaread, I want to make suggestions and help your writing even more.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Here are my strengths as a betareader:br /br /

br /br /

1. Catching simple grammar/spelling mistakes. (As in something spelled wrong, wrong punctuation, etc.)br /br /

br /

br /br /

2. Rephrasing words so that they make sense. (Does that make sense? Pun not intended-but what this means is that I rewrite a sentence so that the reader gets more information out of the sentence than it originally would have.)br /br /

3. Constructive critism. (That essentially means that I'll offer suggestions of your writing to help make you a better writer and help the story be even better.)

My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
My one weakness as a betareader is that I read fast. This means that every once in a while I'll miss a couple mistakes and they'll be ignored, I recommend getting another betareader besides me to ensure that will never happen. (Note: That doesn't mean it happens everytime, I just want to mention that every blue moon I miss one mistake. Just a warning.)
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'd prefer to betaread fanfics from books I've read, so that I can catch something that contrasts with the published book. That said, I WILL betaread other books, but don't expect me to catch things that contrast with the books.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I'm generally very open to betareading! However, I will NOT betaread anime/manga fanfics and I will NOT betaread videogame fanfics.
