Beta Description
Beta Bio: general description as a beta reader
Hi, My name is Kelsey and I'd love to be your beta reader! I have a good eye for grammar, spelling, etc. and truly do enjoy editing. I also love telling stories. I will definitely serve you best if I know a little about what you are writing about. If I do, I am pretty good at making sure things are in character or even that that event you are alluding to actually happened (if that's your plan :) ) I can get pretty busy, considering my recent graduation from college, but I do my best to be there for you and your stories. I CAN be a bit picky about what stories I choose to beta. If I don't think I'd be the best fit for you, I will let you know. It's nothing personal, it just usually because I don't know enough about the topic. If you would like me to beta for you, when you private message me, please let me know what it is about (e.g. Harry Potter - Harry and Ginny's growing relationship in the year after the war). Essentially give me a little teaser so I know what I'm about to get into. Just like you do when you add the story to the site, I'd like to know the characters involved, a little about the plot, whether you plan this to be a one-shot or not, and the category (Harry Potter, etc) |
My Strengths: beta, writing, or reading strengths
I've always enjoyed editing papers and stories and my friends have trusted me enough with their possible grade to choose me to proofread. I also enjoy getting into the story and the characters so I am able to tell if your story is lacking depth or if something is out of character. |
My Weaknesses: beta, writing, or reading weaknesses
I'll be honest...Commas. I hate 'em. They hate me. I tend to insert them everywhere. I was always taught that, in writing, you should put a comma where your would pause if you were speaking... And then I didn't listen when they apparently TRIED to teach me otherwise. This is not to say that I will throw commas into your story like they're nothing. This is mainly an issue when I write, not while proofreading. My second weakness would probably thinking I know enough about your topic. I know a little about a lot and a lot about a little. I may have put down that I'd be willing to beta a specific category, but I might turn you down because I don't know enough. |
Preferred: types of stories I prefer over others
Not necessarily. I only prefer that I am familiar with the category/topic.I'm really feeling Harry Potter and Final Fantasy right now, but I'm open to anything I list in my preferences. |
Would Rather Not: I do not beta for these stories
Stories where I am not familiar with the topic. Pointless stories... |
