Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am a very zealous reader and writer, and I will help anyone who asks me for help. I am non-judgemental and very thourough. If you want me to help you though, you need to actually plan on posting. I will beta 1 and 2 shots as well as full stories that come in chapters. If my specific categories are different that what you write, then you can message me, and I'll let you know if it's something that I can help on. If you want to message straight to me, my e-mail is shaura.panda (at) yahoo (dot) com. I will work with any and all pairings/ships.

(I have beta'd for CSI: Las Vegas, Stargate: SG1, and Star Trek: Enterprise.)

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I have a large vocabulary and I am very good at spelling. I know how to fix spelling and grammar correctly and I know how to indent for the thoughts and speech. I tend to be able to draw out very short choppy sentences, and once I read something once I can extract the theme/mood and roll with it. I may be young, but age is overridden by experience, talent, and passion.
I am fluent in English and Spanish, and I also have a pretty decent understanding of French, Arabic, and Greek.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I do not type very fast. I've never had formal typing classes, so I don't use the typical a-s-d-f- j-k-l way.
However I am a bit of a workaholic, and when I know something needs to be done, I work faster than usual. I am also bad at shortening things, and I usually write very stylized.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
My specialties are CSI, CSI Miami, Avatar: the last Airbender, Charmed, Stargate SG1, and Stargate Atlantis; HOWEVER I will beta anything that I have watched read or watched enough to know the characters, but my specialties are what I have listed. I watch a lot of shows/movies and I read alot, so I will try anything once...and I would appretiate it if you would get in contct with me before sending anything over that I haven't mentioned, as far as shows go. Oh, I don't mind slash, or anything so feel free to send that too.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Outright character flaming I absolutely hate (even though in a few cases it does work.) And I hate stories with no point, that just go on and on without ANYthing interesting happening. Also stories with sexist or racist leanings, and/or name throwing for no reason. Smut. Pointless smut. If you lead up to it, and build a relationship between the characters, fine, but not pointless smut.
