Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
If you're looking for a beta-reader, send me a message and we'll work something out. I love sharing thoughts and ideas about writing with other practitioners of the craft. I'm a busy college student though, so you may have to wait a few days while I read over your story.
Stories will typically get three read-throughs:
1) for mechanics
2) for style
3) for plot/characterization |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I enjoy fantasy world-building...I'm good at checking for plot/character continuity...and yes, I tend to be a grammar Nazi. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'm brutal: If I think a fic needs serious work, I'll say so. I don't sugar-coat things, and that can sometimes discourage other writers. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I prefer fantasy and some sci-fi, but I'm by no means averse to reading a fic set on good ol' Earth in the present age... :-) |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Mysteries in general. Detectives just don't get me all that excited. |
