Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Usually I like fantasy, manga, action and mystery stories and absolutely abhor teen novel stories--they just strike me as all the same. Anyway, how I see beta-reading is like this. The story is the author's, not mine. I'm not authorized to make decisions, as in changes to the plot, unless I am given word that I am able to. I'm usually quick and quite reliable and I hope for the person who chooses me as a beta to be able to mesh with me, and hopefully, I with them. I'm very nice and polite, unless you want me to just relax and be myself...which is still very nice and polite. Heh. Anyway, I hope for you, whoever is interested, to be able to use my services. |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am usually quick since I feel that the author wouldn't want to wait a week in posting a chapter of their's. I'm also thorough and are able to find mistakes and change them. If there is anything else you wish to know, ask me and I'll share. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Weaknesses... Well lets see... I think that sometimes I may not like a certain story and then it will affect me by not wanting to read the story. However, once I get started on something, I finish it, even if I don't enjoy it. But usually that's rare. I'm quite open to most stories. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Fantasy, Manga, Action/Adventure, Poetry (if anyone is interested) and Mystery. |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Teen Novel like stories that talk about a girl and how she's at a school where all the boys like her and all the girls hate her because she's so popular and blah, blah, blah. You get the picture. That's pretty much it. |
