NOTE : If a reviewer beta-reads a fan fiction, that reviewer cannot review that fan fiction if it ever gets submitted.
NOTE : If you are looking for a beta-reader for your fan fiction, you can simply e-mail the Beta-Readers Email List (betareaders@fanfic.theforce.net), and it will be sent to 50+ beta-readers, who can contact you about the possibility of doing a beta-reading (if they are interested in doing it). One does not have to be registered or subscribed to the mailing list in order to send mail to it.
The beta reader mailing list is for requests only. DO NOT use it to distribute your story.
Limits :
Don't know much about far future or ancient past, though not a definite limit. As long as context is set. Minor characters usually bore me unless presented in an extremely interesting way. I did like the Bounty Hunters novel. Anything really offensive which doesn't really belong on this site anyway.
Comments :
I love Sith stories and anything about Anakin/Vader or the Anakin-Padme relationship;
interested in Jedi philosophy as well; Luke, Leia, Obi-Wan stories okay.
Luke's experiences w/darkside interest me.
Limits :
I will mainly do only New Jedi Order stories, but I can make exceptions. I don't like drama stories, only action and adventure (There is always room for exceptions, though.) Only Word docs. please. Anything graphic, be it violence or sex, is perfectly fine.
Comments :
I'm a big Star Wars fan, and have read all of the books, so I like to think I carry alot of knowledge. I also have been versed with many different writing styles because I read alot.
Limits :
Romance stories. I'm not that good at it in my own life so I have no business giving my opinion on someone else's ideas.
Comments :
I am a 28 year old Police Officer. I have enjoyed the Star Wars films my entire life and am an avid collector of the action figures. I also read as many of the books as I can and am looking forward to reading other peoples stories as I have written a few myself. The grittier and darker the better. And that's about all.
Limits :
I'll read just about anything, but some of the things I will not read are:
1) stories with an excessive amount of swearing
2) stories which have references to immoral (sexually) behaviour
Comments :
I'm a, yet unpublished, author; and I am in the process of writing an original novel (non-SW) at the moment. Also, I have been writing and creating SW stories for several years. I have a good feel for writing style, narrative, and sentence structure, as well as grammar. I love proof reading things for other people!
As a warning: I will be completely honest with you, and give you an honest opinion of your work. I'm not usually brutal in my honesty, but unless you specifically request that I "go easy" on your work, I will critique it thoroughly and dispassionately, and tell you my true opinion. You'll get a lot of encouragement and kind words though too. :)
Limits :
I will not read anything that doesn't have at least one character from the two trilogies.(Unless it is in the far future...) I will not read anything where the main character dies or turns bad.
Comments :
I will beta-read almost anything, I am good at spelling and grammer, I have a pretty good knowledge of the SW universe, I own most of the SW books including the Star Wars Encyclopedia(So I can look things up), I am online at least every other day, I am a die hard SW fan, I am a writer, so I can empathies really well.
Limits :
Sappy love stories. Just DON'T!
