Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm a guy who enjoys a good story. If you have a good concept for one and you don't think your writing is up to snuff, I'll see what I can do. If you send me a chapter, I can do one of two things: I can take what you have and go line by line pointing things out that strike me as odd or otherwise, or I can just make the edits to your chapter and send it back, letting you compare the two side by side. The first one will allow for more discussion over methods but is time consuming while the other is the opposite: quick and is perfect for getting releases out quickly. I only ask that you come to me with something workable. You have terrible punctuation and spelling? That's fine as long as I can decipher it. We'll work on that as we go along. One thing at a time. The only thing I really need for your story is a concept and and idea of what you want each chapter to show. Leave the cleaning it up all to me.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm fairly confident in my punctuation and spelling skills. If something is too wordy or repeats the same word far too often, I'll pick up on it really quick. I can give you the perspective of a reader. I mean that I can tell you exactly what I feel during the chapter and exactly what I liked and what I didn't. I'll work with you on your weak points. Things like keeping proper verb tense, or spelling and grammar can all be easily worked on over the course of a story.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I mentioned my two correction methods already. My goal is to work with you because I feel like I'll end up taking over your story. I don't want that to happen. If it does, tell me to back off a bit. I also tend to work better around stories in the first person perspective rather than those done in the third person, so please try to avoid those.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Mass Effect. Gimme all the Mass Effect. SI, OC, I don't care. I love the series and I can make your fic shine. Mostly video game fics otherwise. I am capable of dealing with OCs in most any capacity.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Twilight. MLP (not a hater, I just don't want to go that far down the rabbit hole). Naturally, any field that I'm not familiar with. If it's familiar and has potential, I got your back. Just try to avoid things that aren't game related.
