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.

I'm not too picky, but trying to get me to read slashes or Obidalas is a bad idea. In fact, so is any story that pairs Obi-Wan with someone. Sorry, but I just can't enjoy reading those genres. I'd tend to shy away from all adventure or action stories unless they have some kind of hidden romance or drama.
Comments :
I am a hopeless romantic, so any romance that isn't slash or Obi-Wan oriented is welcome. I loooooove Vader introspections and any HL, LM, JTK, AniPadme or J/J that you can throw at me. Missing scenes are great too.
I prefer to beta stuff for more sophisticated problems than spelling and sentence structure, so if that's all you want, please don't ask for my help. I read and write for the big picture, for plot, characterization, imagery, and feeling. I like to put my comments in the story, (Preferably as a Word doc), so if you're sending me your story, please send it double spaced so I have room. Also, when you contact me please let me know when (Approximately) you'd like to have your story back and beta-ed. I'm pretty busy this summer, and I don't want to keep you waiting forever. I'd love to read everyone's fics, but sometimes I just don't have time. *Glum face* Sorry.
Take what I have with a grain of salt, and contact me if you need something beta-ed.
May the Force be with you. *grins all over*
Preferred Genres :
Adventure; Angst; Drama; Jedi Philosophy; Political Intrigue; Sith Philosophy; Star Wars Historical; Vignette
Limits :
Generally, I'm a pretty open person. I have preferences, but I'll be happy to read just about anything that catches my fancy.
Comments :
I'm a simple dude with a love for Star Wars and a love for anything creatively written.
I'm a writer myself, and if I can help anybody out in any possible way, I will.

Limits :
No smut/slash (the mental image of beloved Star Wars characters doing the naked pretzel is not a pleasant one), no Ani/Ami/Obi love triangles (because it's just not supposed to be that way). Swearing is fine (because I do it a LOT).
Comments :
JadeSolo is a college student who worships Mara Jade and Han Solo (hence the alias). She is hopelessly addicted to fanfic and is very...slowly...working on her own stories instead of concentrating on less important things (like classes). She shamelessly considers herself the Queen of Grammar (years of Latin will do that), and she usually thinks more in terms of character than plot. Sometimes she thinks of life as one big story. Obi-Wan and Rouge Squadron stories tend to be her favorites, but she likes almost everything. Place the emphasis on "almost." :-) But whatever you have, please throw it at her, especially if the characters are twisted and the story is dark, because she'd love to read it. After all, it's very likely that she'd rather be beta-reading than doing homework.
