Good day sir or madame. Please step this way, no dawdling now, this is a full show.br /br /br /

To your left, you will see me: Aeromance, a dashing seventeen year old male US resident who is an eligible beta reader that could possibly be in your employ in the near future. Up ahead, you will see my writings, a small exhibit to be sure, but the only five things people have bullied me into actually posting on here. It would be a lie to say I didn't look forward to posting three so I could maybe be a beta reader. br /br /

Enough about me personally, and more about what I could be to you. br /br /

As a beta reader, I'll be sure to correct the simple stuff, grammar, punctuation, and all that jazz, but being a beta reader goes beyond that, I believe. A successful beta reader is a sounding board to bounce ideas off of and discuss the deeper intentions of your plot and the characters you are toying with. A beta reader is someone who seeks not to weave their own work into yours but buff your work to a deep shine. br /br /

As such, I am not one to make outright corrections unless there is a definite right and wrong answer, such as the laws of punctuation and spelling and such. Further than that, I will most likely add comments like "This sentence needs rewording." and then explain why, or "This paragraph breaks the flow of the underlying emotions you're creating in this passage, did you mean to do that? If not, fix asap." br /br /

As far as your plot and characters, I will point out OOCness where it is needed, and point out possible plot holes or obviously bad story writing, but I will do my best not to interfere with the plot as a whole unless you specifically ask my opinion or suggestions on that. Again, your writing, not mine. I buff, not weave.
