Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Beta Editor. You know, that almost sounds dangerous. If you think about it, Beta sounds like a shark about to bite you. Beh-TA! The Ta being the shark bite. I guess, as an editor I will edit basically anything. I am weak in grammar, but I'm sure I would be fine.
I tend to give advice on how to write if it looks like you may be a bit poor in a certain skill. My main tip is always consider what your character wants, whether is be a cool glass of the water. Some really smart person said that, on some website that I cannot remember. They were REALLY smart. So I would probably suggest using the Sims needs and make little health characters for your characters. But that would be if you are very specific and exact, heh.
I tend to read a lot about writing tips and quotes so I will probably always have something to say, unless you are perfect, which I doubt. I am sure everyone's writer can be better. That just depends on whether or not they want it to be better or if it is meant to be scattered. For there were some authors who became famous for scattered words and phrases.
I have written in three genre's (According to my profile) but many sub genres also. Although I do not do FF slash, and I Hetero and MM slash. I have written fantasy, but love realistic stuff far more. I also have no life, so I will probably edit for you rather quickly, once I am sure you are totally serious and implement the first chapter's edits.
I edit is so you can decide what you want to change, not so it is already changed. You do not have to worry about that, and I will send it through either DocX or through an attachment on your email, but please tell me how you want it sent.
If I can come up with more, I may put it here, if I remember that I actually have a beta profile. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Style is my strongest point. Character development is another strong point. Followed closely by dialogue. There was a time when dialogue was my weakness, but it has progressively become one of my strongest points. I think that if you do anything related to characters and dialogue I may be able to edit it much better, especially if those are your weaknesses as a writer. I am very good at finding spelling errors. My eyes pick up on them as if someone shone a light on them and said it was gold. I many times pick up on comma errors. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I am very bad with tense. That is my worse problem as a writer and editor. I will read it and I may or may not figure out it is the right or wrong tense. My brain doesn't seem to have a sense of time. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
I will probably read a lot of things, but if it doesn't catch my interest I will tell you immediately that I don't want to edit it. The not my cup of Tea is a very specific list, try to follow it period. I don't edit them, and I will probably turn you down. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Futuristic with anything technological and anything with Alien or Robots. Those are not my aim nor goal for editor. I also do not really like historical or political. FF Slash, don't even go there. |
