Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I judge pieces with a critical eye and give my honest reviews as objectively as possible. I go for sense and not just the play of words. I believe that writing, as a means of communication, should not fail to transmit the author's intended message to his or her readers, or else it becomes a whole flop. Grammar is a priority as well. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am not claiming to be a professional but I have been into writing for more than a decade and have been into poetry writing for seven years. Essay writing only comes as a secondary enjoyment for me, but I can do well with it too. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I have a thing against cliches and wrong grammar. :) I can be cruel about it, but that is just part of my objectivity as a reader. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I go for good poetry- either free verse or traditional. I love fiction stories as well. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Morbidity is a big no-no. But if you insist and give me a good reason for it, then I might reconsider. |
