Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I am into grammar, I have a knack for spelling and am really into deeper stories. I only beta english and despise really really short chapters in stories. I check my fanfiction often and get back to people as soon as possible when I beta. PM me if you would like me to assist you in your writing or edit.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am good at all kinds of writing, though I am admittedly better at romance, horror, mystery and adventure. I am good at giving depth to stories and looking into the meanings and depth of the words and setting up things so that there are twists and turns in the plot. I am also good at slowing down a story so that the reader gets more from it, instead of a basic overview. I'm good at making the reader feel like they are really there. I don't write for you, but if you ask, i can write small portions like scenes. I just tell you my opinions of where you can go with it and what you have oppen to you if you take certain courses of action.
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm not great at angst or drama. I don't like cheesy anything and I get really picky and ocd about certain things I find anoying or stupid. I must have a deadline to be effective. Foriegn names must be spelled correctly because it will be underlined in red and when I add it, I will forever change it to the first thing if it was wrong the first time you sent it and I saved it.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
I like things I've read and games I've played. I like romance, horror, mystery, humor, hurt/comfort. I will look into those genres even if I haven't read the original story. I have a very large range of stories I've read, so go figure! Strong main characters that ARE NOT mary sues catch my attention, and I love reading those.
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
I will not beta anything with sexual content in it. If it's graphic, i'm graphically gone. end of story. I also don't really like to beta stories from things I've never seen or read. I dislike weak or really needy main characters. Mary Sues and Gary Sues drive me insane, and when characters are nothing like themselves I kind of lose interest. I have to have a deadline to be effective. STUTTERING UNNECCISARILY DRIVES ME INSANE! Stupid or boring characters drive me up a wall, but only if they are the main character. SOMETIMES I MAKE EXCEPTIONS TO THESE RULES! So PM me and I will give you a chance! :)
