Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I'm a whore for grammar. I'm a little iffy on spelling sometimes, and I don't really notice my own mistakes, but everyone does that, right? That's why betas are necessary. I'm pretty critical about punctuation and a bit on sentence structure. I'm not sure if I have a style of "betareading," but then again, I've never done it before. I've edited writing before, but I suppose this is different in some way, shape, or form? |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I'm a grammar whore. Punctuation is my strong point, I think, and also, as I said, sentence structure. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Spelling? Some words I just don't know how to spell. Usually it's words that don't occur often, so I suppose it's not much of a weakness. I suffer a bit from reading too quickly, but going slow (which would be happening since I'd be betaing) pretty much takes care of that. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
A story is a story. I'm interested in almost anything. I'm especially fond of Romance (mf,ff,mm: doesn't matter), but other genres are no problem. I especially like mostly history-oriented, sci-fi/fantasy, and the like. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Nothing that comes to mind. |
