Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi there,br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

As a Beta Reader for you, I will perform the following services:br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

1. Correct any issue with SPaG (unless you give me specific instruction not to, I will correct ALL known mistakes)br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

2. Review plot for any inconsistencies/weaknessesbr /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

3. Offer advice on how to rework scenes I feel do not add to the overall piece, are too expositional, or are just plain dull.br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

4. Work with you to create real, believable characters, and to ensure your creativity is given maximum room to flourish.br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

In turn, this is what I expect from you as an author:br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

1. You have a schedule for completion of the story, and deadlines for when new chapters arrive with me to be beta read.br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

2. All documents are to be in ".doc" - Microsoft Word format. This is so I can use the "track changes" feature to show you what I have changed, and comments as to why I have changed it.br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

3. I expect you to listen to my advice and take it on board. If you do not use my advice, please at least tell me why, not just 'its my story' - I will always defer to you, this is your story after all, just be ready to justify it to me!

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
n/a
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
n/a
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I would prefer to beta Harry Potter Slash fiction above all other stories, however I am open to all kinds of work, so long as the subject matter interests me.br /br /

br /

br /br /

br /

As to further the Harry Potter Slash Fiction, I would be available to beta ALL HP/DM [It is by far my favourite ship!]

Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Any slash fiction with Harry and an older character [Harry/Snape, Harry/Sirius, etc...] They are just gross and I have NEVER found one I liked.
