Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
NOTE: My own stories may have flaws, but sheer pride has driven me to not consult a beta reader myself(Those who have read my stories will understand what I mean).^_^There is no such thing as an 'ideal storyline'. All writers have their own style and ideas. But personally, as a beta reader, I think it's just giving general suggestions to improve the original work that's already been laid out. Some people like it, others don't. That's fine. Now let's see, I am capable of catching any immediate grammatical errors; improper use of commas, spelling, homophones and homonyms, and punctuation mistakes. I can handle most story layouts, and I love OC's so I can help coordinate them into a story if needed. I love original situations or very well-thought out ideas. One thing that ticks me off is spelling, if I can manage to decipher what you were trying to spell, then kudos to you, if not, I'll really get angry. I'm good at making character's OOC(Only when absolutely necessary), if anyone's writing humor or crack. I can enhance descriptions and convey emotions very well. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Spelling, and technical grammar. And I can think up situations for any sort of story setting, or modify a script if that's what one is looking for. I guess I'm good with soft characters, and love issues. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
1-SARCASM. So sorry, but I do NOT handle sarcastic characters well, so me beta reading sarcasm, well, I can gramatically proof-edit it, but won't be of any use if you want any original lines. Eg for sarcastic characters:Len T.(LCD), Ichigo(Bleach), Kyoya(OHSHC) 2-Run-on sentences; I can somehow make myself believe that run-on sentences are always a good thing. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'd definitely prefer soft love stories. Lemon is perfectly fine with me, I have no problem with those scenes. I can do autobiographical stories pretty well too, or stories that are told from a particular person's POV. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Um...none that I can think of so far, I'll let you know if I come across any like that. |
