Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
One of my main aims as a betareader would be to improve grammar and/or text layout. It makes the story so much easier to read and more enjoyable, even if it's small things like correct punctuation, or bigger things like starting a new line for speech. I just want to make sure that stories are the best they can be (or, at least, readable!) before they are put on the website. All I ask of the writer is that they make an effort with their work, because writing is such an amazing gift, to the author and especially to the readers.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm good at picking up spelling and grammar mistakes, probably because I like my stories to be as perfect as possible. I like to include a bit of suspence and a fluent writing style in my own stories, so I'll be looking out for that.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Admittedly, I'm a bit lazy. I try my best, but sometimes I just have those can't-be-bothered days. But I'm working on that, and I would NEVER leave a story unfinished. I live in New Zealand, while most of the writers are based in the USA. that means that I occasionally spell things the british way, rather than the American way. I do make an effort to spell some words normally (not normal for me) though.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
One shots will always be my preference, but I'd still love to commit to a long story!
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I'm not picky.
