Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone takes your work and then changes things without your permission. I absolutely CANNOT stand it, so I go out of my way to POINT OUT mistakes, offer suggestions on how to fix them, and then move on. Unfortunately, I AM busy, so if it seems like I'm taking forever to send your story back to you, well, just send me a PM and I'll tell you why or go, "Oh, crap! I totally forgot because I was writing that paper/memorizing those lines/in rehearsal!"
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm pretty good with the grammatical side of writing, although I'm not perfect. If I'm not sure about something, I'll be sure to tell you, and I'll more than likely look it up, (gotta love google!). I'm also pretty good at remembering little details that no one else does, so if I see a plot inconsistency, I'll be sure to point it out.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Dude, I'm not perfect. I'll make mistakes. End of story. I'm good with grammar, but I'm not marvelous with it; seriously, I'm in college to be an actor, not an English teacher. I tend to edit more on the formal side of writing, even though this IS a creative writing site. Hopefully I'm not as bad as I used to be. I also have a slight tendency to be annoying and sometimes (okay, a lot of the time) I come across as an asshole through text. My sense of humor doesn't always translate. Sorry, it's just me.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Well, I love stories that have to do with the relationship between brothers. I guess it's a mixture of being an older brother, (I'd never give up the job, EVER!), and the wish that I had an older brother to take care of me sometimes. *shrug* Besides that, I think it's an awesome thing to watch the relationship in it's high points and it's low points. Oh, and I love angst. Did I mention that?
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I'll do anything, really, as long as I'm warned before hand. I do prefer plot with the stories I read, however, and I'm not (nor have I ever been) active in the manner where I would be useful fixing technical details with PWP. But yeah, slash, het, etc. I'm game.
