Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am an extremely fast reader, so I can probably offer feedback relatively fast. I love, love, love reading, and I have read hundreds (maybe thousands) of books in my day, so I have had experience reading a variety of genres and styles. I am willing to proof-read, offer suggestions, or point out flaws in characterisation/plot. I am very critical, so don't worry if I offer up loads of suggestions, as I am word-level picky. However, I am not a negative reader, so I won't tell you that your story sucks and is beyond redemption. I will instead point out the parts that I loved, and the parts that didn't like as much. I willing to beta read your story, but if you're looking for a critique partner (exchanging stories, and exchanging betareads), I am also willing to do that too. Just shoot me a PM, and we'll see how that goes.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am very nit-picky about grammar and punctuation, and I am good at picking out character flaws, or character irregularities. I write/read a lot of stories with fighting/action in it, and I am a martial artist, so I can help with the writing/flow of an action sequence. I'm more of an internal writer (description and internal monologues) than an external (dialogue), so I am willing to help with the internal aspect of writing.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not that good at writing humorous dialogue, and writing sex scenes. I've tried, but they've never turned out that well. However, if your story does contain steamy romance/sex, I'm willing to beta it.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Preferably books that I've read and liked, but I really don't mind.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Stories that contain shorthand/text-talk. Please don't write like that, it is very off-putting to read.
