Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE SUBMITTING ANY OF YOUR WORKS TO ME-FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN MY IGNORING OF YOUR SUBMISSIONS. I will offer a positively critical eye to anyone's story should they ask it. I do expect that you use spell check and grammar check before asking me to critique your story-just for minor assistance. Excessive spelling errors completely ruin a story, and are, with the help of spell check, completely avoidable. Also, using text message shortcuts to write a story (example: u kno wut he is doing 2nite?) is unacceptable. You cannot possibly expect someone to take editing your story seriously if you aren't going to put forth even half an honest effort. I'm trying to help fine tune your stories, not write them for you. I also prefer that stories submitted to me be written by someone with English as a first language, as I'm very busy with work and my own writing and cannot play role of English tutor. That being said, I'm not so vicious as my previous rant may indicate. All I ask is that your writing be intelligible and of decent substance. Obviously there are exceptions to every rule, and if you feel you're above average intelligence when it comes to writing and do not meet my previous requirements, I am willing to take that into consideration. Without further ado, I look forward to reading your stories!
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am excellent with vocabulary, spelling, and grammatical correctness on a critical level. I am also adept at getting a story and ideas to flow well, so if you are having trouble expressing ideas or getting them to be a trifle more cohesive, I am quite helpful. Once again, since people seem to NOT get it, I will NOT read your story if you don't have a good handle on the English language. I have long, animated, colorful fights with grammar and spell check-as sometimes, it is WRONG. End of story. ;)
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I might miss certain punctuation errors, especially if a story is too good to read slowly.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I prefer action, adventure, romance, and mostly positive stories of any subject/fiction base-so long as they have a believable plotline. I'm especially knowledgeable in the Mass Effect series, Dragon Age series, Twilight Series, Harry Potter series, the Chronicles of Riddick and Pitch Black, the Underworld series, Blood & Chocolate, and the Covenant.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I'm fairly open. I don't enjoy slash all that much, unless it's well done. Aside from that, show interest in the craft of writing and be willing to learn, and I'll be more than happy to help. :)
