Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I always run my beta-stuff through Microsoft Word, just to fix most of the bugs, and then I do it again by hand (not my own stuff -- that only applies to other peoples'). I will usually do it ASAP, but hey, occasionally I do get a life. So if you don't hear from me within two weeks, that's abnormal. Usually I'll do my best to have it back to you in a week, tops. You must be patient! |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
Great speller, and one of the top grammar people in my school. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Ugh, making me double-check that medical references are correct and other stuff like that. I'm not the /best/ at grammar (my school is quite small!), and I don't have the dictionary memorized. |
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Things that are romance-y, angsty, but not too angsty...; so angsty-ish, humor! . . . Sara Dessen-like. I'm not super picky. Humor! |
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Violence, gangs, rape, incest... Stuff like that. I like a little action/violence, as long as the romance carries it. |
