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 :
I don't like Anakin/Padme romances, or clone trooper/stormtrooper stories. I also don't like bounty hunter stories. Nothing with too much cursing or love scenes.
Comments :
I love anything about the Jedi or the Sith. Especally Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan stories. Though, I'm flexible. Available anytime.
Limits :
What I won't read is a story that doesn't have enough detail. Like the sky of Naboo, I would like for you to describe what you see not just I looked at the sky and it was dark. How dark was it?
Comments :
If your story have the adventure, the drama, and lightsaber duals I will read that for you in an instant. I enjoy well thought out stories that keep you guessing.
Limits :
I will not beta-read anything too inappropriate or violently disgusting; pairings that are slash, too strange, or random I won't beta-read; i.e.: Darth Vader/Luke; Padme/Palpatine, or anything like that.
Thank you.

I'm a pretty open writer; I know I'm not the best out there, of course there are much better ones, but I try to get better each story I write.
I'm not hard on people, or mean, or flame stories as I've seen done. That is just downright rude.
OK, another thing that gets me. Copying someone's story and posting it on Livejournal to flame and make fun of it. That's just sick. Don't people have better things to do with their time than trash somebody's story?

The prefered genres and characters above are not in any way the limit to what I will beta-read. I enjoy reading all forms of well written fanfiction.

I love reading fan fictions because the stories thought up are so different from the ones you find in the EU novels. Also I would love to read any crossover ideas anyone wants to send me. And by crossovers I mean things like a Star Wars/Star Trek crossover sort of thing. Also I'm a tech nitpicker and can help you with any mistakes in your tech references.
Limits :
Nothing comes to mind at the moment, though I'm sure I'll eventually think of something. I'm pretty easy going, though, and I will generally read almost anything, if its appealing.
Comments :
I may be a bit slow at times because my life is very hectic, and I am prone to being away from the ability to write or read at unexpected times. I'll do my best to warn anyone when possible, and generally won't accept a fic for beta reading if I have an idea I'm about to have to be away for a time. I'll do my best to work with people if they'll accept and acknowledge that my life is crazy *chuckles*
Limits :
I haven't read any of the "new" Star Wars editions, so if u send it to me, I hate to say it but I won't be that... interested.
Comments :
I love reading and writing period. Anything about Anakin and Padme I gobble up.
Also, if u ask me to be ur beta reader, PLEASE tell me what ur story is abt first.
it would REALLY help.
