Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
I betaread for everything: writing style, grammer, spelling and originality. I would like people who love writing for what it is, not to get popular, or decide to do it because they're bored. I'm completely honest in my reviews, I will tell you if you make a recurring mistake, (i.e. if you make it through the whole chapter, that's a recurring mistake) because that can change the way your story is perceived! I want to see something that I've never read before in a story, not princess gets thrown out by evil step mother and lands with forest creatures and gets married to a prince, boooorrriiiinnngg! I won't read something that's racist. Let your imagination soar!!!
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I am very strong with fantasy, and I know quite alot about the middle ages, about clothing, food, technology etc. I can write strong female characters' POV very well, and judge their reactions in stories to real life to make the story much more believable! I can subconsiously add a detail in that proves to be incredibly important later, especially with my first story.
I recently found out that I'm very good at supernatural, too!
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
Male attitude. Not so great at that, and adults talking is rather hard. Sometimes I get so caught up in my writing ideas down in a chapter that only I can really understand them, I've had to replace chapters that way (though I can always spot when others do that!).
Preferred: types of entries I prefer over others
Fantasy, romance, humor, supernatural, I will read alot of things as long as it's well written! I can usually read general if it's interesting, and drama works if it isn't to angst ridden.
Would Rather Not: types of entries I do not want to beta for
Historical, not really my thing. Stories' plots that have been changed slightly from others to make them someone elses, definately not. Good vs. evil, it needs to have a great twist or three in it to make it interesting, but otherwise, no.
