Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm not a professional writer and not striking to be one...

Ironically, I'm a Systems Engineer. That's why I usually see things with a critical eye, analyzing situations or reactions from different points of view, thinking them logically and trying to make them seem as close to reality as possible... or at least believable enough.

I'm still open-minded and accepting to ideas, sci-phi and other perspectives and I'll always back-up my opinions with arguments.

I think having a beta is important to keep you from getting too much into character and make your story better. So, for those who think they could use an analytical eye to help create an awesome story, I'm here to help!

Don't let yourself be misguided by the few stories I posted. Even if I don't have as much time to write my stories as when in High School, I enjoy a good read or helping out a fellow writer. :)

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Don't freak out if I don't respond instantly to your PMs. I am working full-time, studying for my Master degree and undertaking martial arts regular training so I might not have the energy left to respond in the same day I get an e-mail but I always do in maximum three days. I prefer to work on chapters during the weekend when I have more free time.

My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm adaptable to different styles of writing. I let the author actually create his/her own style. I'm more into character development and feeling description than actual plot and I've studied the Three Act Structure used mostly in screen writing but applicable to novels too so I have a good grasp on the crafting of a good story and character.

I also ask many questions to help the writer understand the story and the characters better.

I'm working best when there are OCs in the stories.

My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
It still hinders me sometimes: grammar and spelling. I'm not from an English speaking country so I need more time when it comes to correcting. I also might overlook some mistakes.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Anime/Manga:

Yu Yu Hakusho (I love HieixOC! KuwabaraxYukina, KuwabaraxOC, KuramaxOC, Shizuru and... pretty much anything about this anime);

Fairy Tail (I love GajeelxLevy! NatsuxLucy, LaxusxOC etc.);

Vampire Knight (ZeroxOC, ZeroxYuuki, AidouxOC);

Bleach (mostly HistugayaxOC! HistugayaxKarin, RukiaxIchigo, RenjixOC, RenjixRukia);

Naruto (SasukexSakura!, SasukexOC, SakuraxOC, NarutoxOC, NarutoxHinata, KushinaxMinato, ItachixOC);

Yu-Gi-Oh (KaibaxOC! KaibaxTea);

DNAngel

Games:

Final Fantasy VII (RenoxOC are my favorites but I'm good with RenoxYuffie, CloudxTifa).

Movies:

X-Men series (WolverinexOC).

...and AU stories with a good plot. All stories except below:

Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
...and these exceptions are included in these genders: yaoi (boys love), yuri (girls love), incest, pregnant males... you get the point.

I don't really handle horror stories either...
