Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Were any story offered to me for me to proofread, I should instantly accept. However, let it not be said that this acceptance entails my mercy. I am what is called a "Grammar Nazi," and when it comes down to the law and order of the English language, I can be as ruthless as just such a Nazi. I usually try to be nice, though. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I can tell a good story from a story that is in serious need of revision at a glance. I do not boast on this matter. Please don't come to me without at least having reread the story first. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not strong on plot. It's often why I choose to do oneshots, drabbles and suchlike when I am pretending to be a writer instead of an editor. I can, however, tell when the plot has gone limp and boring. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I like humor, having a good laugh and so on, although it may not seem that way at first glance. My second favorite category is that of fantasy, which is self-evident in regards to fantasy series. (Though truth be told, I like them both in equal measure.) |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Romance is okay, but I don't like slash very much. I also don't like chaptered stories that focus entirely too much on pairings. Just what constitutes "entirely too much," I myself do not know. If I think so, I would be certain to inform whoever I may in the future betaread for. |
