Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hello, I am a literature student, and reading and writing is my passion. Even when I read a piece of writing written by anyone, I keep certain technicalities like writing style, expressions and grammar in mind as can be witnessed from my reviews. I believe writing is more of a practice, than an art. It can always be perfected, polished. Not even the best of writers can be perfect; even if none can compare to them, they always have the boundaries of one person they can expand beyond: their own. That is my believe and that is why I approach the written word with an open mind and accepting smile. Thus anyone who is looking for a beta who has a firm grasp of the rules and regulations of English Grammar, as well as a good critical eye would be delighted by my service.
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I always keep the writer in mind, and do not try to come in the way of their muse, unless they ask me for ideas. Also as a beta-reader, I am very fast and do not linger with the stories for more than two days. So you won't have to wait for my opinion if you ask for it.:)
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I can locate and correct mistakes made in English. But I'm very sorry to say that I do not have any knowledge of other languages. So any if you're looking for someone to correct the couple of sentences you've put in in German, I might not be the person you are looking for. Also I do not approve of writers who put up first chapters of a multi-chaptered story without having any definite plan for the rest. Lack of flow, and plot holes make me lose interest very fast.
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Hurt Comforts are awesome, as are angst and sad depressing stories. :) But other than that I'm fine with most pairings, (slash included) and love the out of the box insightful stories. Also poetry is the food for my soul, and I would love to read any pieces inspired from poems, or poems inspired by characters. :)
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Mpreg, Sorry that concept I just don't understand. Graphic descriptions of slash. Though I am fine with slash and all that, and even reading a good sizzling story is awesome, I suck at writing such pieces. So that which I cannot do, I cannot judge either. Sorry.
