Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I love helping people and will gladly accept any beta-reading as long as it follows what I prefer to write. I have been writing stories since I was little, whether it being silly stories about a cat or a complex adventure about friends, I'm all over the place. I am perfectly honest, so please don't be offended if I say something about your writing. My honest goal is to make you a better writer. I am the go-to girl in my English class; people always ask me to read their papers for a peer response. I give lots of comments, advice, and tips to help make a sentence flow. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Though this is a common strength of people, one of my strengths is creativity and being able to twist words so people get a clear picture of what I'm talking about. I tend to keep a constant theme as well, making sure I point the paragraph or chapter I'm on back to the main theme. When I take my time, my writing usually is pretty clean with very little to no grammatical mistakes. I also develop over-all concepts as well as keep stories organized and in an order. I also connect well with my audience and get down on a personal level. I also have a very strong ethos and sense of self. I know what I am writing and how I am writing it and who my audience is. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
When I get sloppy and lazy, on the other hand, my grammar and puncuations go down the hill. Over time I have realized I am good at keeping canon characters true to themselves. I notice when characters are out of character. Sometimes I don't get all the information I need on that paper, some of the ideas still in my head. Often times, if I read a work of mine and someone goes back and reads it as well and doesn't make sence of it, it's because I left some of the important points in my head. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I am quite good at writing romance themed stories. I love adventure and fantasy. I have been writing poetry for a long time as well, so I'll be glad to help anyone with any poem. I prefer rhyming poetry, but I've found I'm not too shabby at writing free verse. I do enjoy humor, but I'm really not a funny person (though some people on this site do think I'm funny). I'll also do anything in the family and friendship categories. My best category is hurt/comfort and angst because of the fact that I am angsty and know how that feels. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
No yaoi/yuri/incest/slash, sorry. |
