Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi everyone! I'm new to this, so really I'm ready and willing to help out in any way I can! Pop me a PM if you want to discuss stuff in more detail, but basically:br /

br /

- I love gramma. And grammar. This, I will be ruthless with; there have been countless fanfics with ingenious plots and fascinating points and intriguing characters written in a way I would never have thought of, and I have been unable to finish the story because they write with no punctuation or spaces and the sentences are kinda like this and there's dialogue everywhere, said Sirius and go away yelled belatrix lestrange as she pointed her wand at the potter boy. br /

br /

Please let me fix that. br /

br /

- For hints of my style, please check out my published stories. I'm very conscious that everyone has their own style, and I keep this in mind when editing things, focusing mainly on grammar, punctuation and though I may make some suggestions for language and sentence structuring, the final vote rests in your hands, it's your story after all!br /

br /

- Please check out my profile for the fandoms and fics I'm interested in. I will gladly read anything you put in front of me, can labels included, but I may have trouble with grasping the essences of characters and dialogue. Not to worry, I'll leave that all to you, and you can teach me a thing or several thousand! :)

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Grammar Nazi. Not going to lie. Good spelling and punctuation make my day.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
It is a constant battle to ensure that I'm not re-writing a story, rather, just adding suggestions and picking up on things that one may miss when reading and re-reading and crafting one's story in the wee hours of the morning. It is constantly at the forefront of my mind, though, so I'm working on it, and I promise I won't return your story to you and have you be all like 'wtf have you done?!'
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Check out my profile for the stuff I like, as well as my favourited stories and authors!
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I haven't written any lemon or smut or anything of that sort, so I'm probably not the best person to ask about the accuracy and/or realism of such things. I'll have a go... maybe...
