Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
When I'm reading, I tend to look at plot, character development, and style first. While I believe technical ability (spelling, grammar, and vocabulary) is important, it can be overlooked if the storyline is strong enough. As such, I would first focus on smoothing out the plot line and all of the sub-plots, making note of what doesn't fit or what is a hindrance to the story. Then I would look at the characters, making sure that they stay consistent throughout (e.x., a character who is rude the next minute won't be polite "out of the blue"). Character interactions are also important, as they drive the story. The style of a story is important. It should be fairly flowing and easy to understand. Finally, I would search over for spelling, grammar, and vocabulary mistakes, just to be safe.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am fairly adequate at putting together interpersonal conflicts and such. I feel that I'm also pretty good at describing a scene. If it goes on inside a character's head, I can write it. If it happens between two distinct characters, I can write it.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not amazing at writing action sequences...
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Action is fine, though I do enjoy reading stories that are very character-driven. Also, I'm a sucker for romance.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Anything not Starfox (unless you're a friend of mine). Also, no yaoi or "humans and Starfox" stories.
