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 :

Limits :
I don't know all that much about the Jedi Apprentice stuff, nor about the events in the myriad comic book adventures that set up the ancient past of Star Wars. Other than that stuff, pretty much anything goes with me.
Comments :
I take everything pretty seriously, so if you want an honest, straight-forward read-through of your material send it this way! I may mark it up a lot, but that's because I love to be a highly active reader and I think a lot of commentary is much more useful than nothing. Plus, it's how we improve as writers. No personal preferences other than those listed above. Oh, I've lied already...no slash stories, please. :)
Limits :
I'll do just about any kind of story, but if it has Anikin, please make it dark side or childhood, no A&P stuff. I love bounty hunter stories, and romance/action
Limits :
Anakin Skywalker/Padme or Anakin Solo/Tahiri romantic relationships as a main plot or major subplot. I'm fine with AU Darth Vader/Padme.
Comments :
I'm a fairly prolific fanfic writer, and have posted several fics to the TFN boards (Eleventh_Guard and earlier, AlisonC) and LiveJournal (coruscant_exile). I write almost all genres, and I focus my work on the NJO and post-NJO eras, but have written a little bit of prequel-era and YJK-era fic. I don't beta much for writing style, since everyone's style is different, and this isn't indicative of a problem - unless it's extreme, like very badly done purple prose or a style so minimalist that key details are lost. Most of my beta-reading time is midweek - Thursday is a day I get a lot done - so I'm less able to return fics quickly over the weekend.
I will beta-read any rating and any pairing, including slash, if the fic is for a site that allows it, except for the two pairings I've listed as limits above if they're major parts of the story.
Limits :
I very rarely pick things up from the beta reader mailing list. On the other hand, I very rarely say no to a direct request.
My grammar isn't bad but not really top notch either. I won't touch fluff or over-drawn angst but apart from that, I'll give anything a go.
Comments :
For general stuff, I'm a Uni student, majoring in English. Star Wars is my first of three fandoms, and I've been writing fan fiction for almost four years.
I generally try and get stuff back pretty quick, unless its excessively long or I have a lot of assignments. That might take a little extra time.
Limits :
I won't beta read immorral things or stuff with lots of cussing, it just gets boring when they swere alot.
Comments :
I love star wars and have for many years, my favourite series is NJO and for some reasen Bant and Garen Muln aren't character coices but I enjoy them too. Bant, Tahiri and Padmé are my favourite female characters. Anakin, Anakin Solo, Corran Horn and Jar Jar are my favourite male characters.
