Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
To put it simply, I am a Grammar Nazi. So if you have me betaread for you, you can be absolutely sure that there will be few grammatical mistakes. I am also quite knowledgeable about the subjects that I will betaread for, therefore I will be able to correct any false information that your story might contain. Honestly I enjoy writing quite a lot; both fictional and informative. I scored a ten out of twelve on the ACT and I excel in the writing portions of all English classes; it is not uncommon for my essay test grades to be in the high 90s to being an actual 100. You will not regret having me as a betareader!
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
As I said previously, I am very good at correcting grammatical errors; your story will be pristine Grammar wise if I have something to do with the editing process. I have somewhat of a large vocabulary, so if you need synonyms for repeated words, I'm your go to person. I also have a wide breadth of creative ideas (when inspired, of course) and might be able to help with problems such as writers block.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I am a very busy person so I might unfortunately be on hiatus a majority of the time. Between extra curricular activities and being an IB student, my free time for fanfiction (reading and writing) is scarce a lot. However don't let this discourage you! If I am on a hiatus and you really want me to betaread, PLEASE PM me and we can try to work something out! Moving on, I also get writer's block a lot myself, so thinking of plot twists and such is not my strong suit. Sometimes my stories can be full of paragraphs that consist of three sentences or fewer, which isn't visually appealing. In my own writing, this is an issue that I am working on. I'm sure I will be able to help you out! Also, I'm not very good at writing drabbles and cannot be sure if I will be good at editing them as well.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I'd prefer to betaread for the fandoms and series' that are my favorites and that I am actually a part of (see my profile for more information on this). I will likely betaread anything from any Tales game (that I have actually played of course) and House of Anubis. Pokemon as well as Percy Jackson I will never refuse. Ratings will range from K to T and. If romance is involved, I'd like it to be a ship I actually like.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Anything not listed on my profile. I take pride in the fact that I am knowledgeable about the fandoms that I am a part of, and if the fandom of your story is not listed on my profile (and you want me to review it for reasons other than Grammar) then I would suggest looking elsewhere for a betareader. I do not like to read anything rated M and I prefer not to read really simple AUs (like high school AUs, etc)
