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.

Comments :
I was hooked on Star Wars when I was ten and I accidentally rented "A New Hope." Thus, the fanaticism started. Then, when the books were released, I ate them up voraciously. However, I've grown up a little, and I've read almost all of the EU, excepting the NJO, and a few books before that. It was at about the time of the "Black Fleet Crisis" that I finally decided that the direction that the Expanded Universe was taking was not the same as the OT, and especially not that of PT. So I am now a canonist. However, I'm not one for creating grudges, so let me say that, while I am not a fan of the EU anymore, I have read it, and remember most of it. I *will* help out people with EU characters. I won't get mad at your use of them, and I wont warp or twist them. It's just a personal preference of mine.

I've written for quite some time and I often find that I am a better helper than I am a writer. I've developed many characters over the years, whether I write with them or if just for practice. I am willing to read for anyone that wishes to use my "services", but I will be truthful and not coddle you in any way. Keep that in mind.
Limits :
I dont have many limits, Ill read mostly everything aslong as it does not get to long and you keep beating around the bush (not that I mind one doing it once or twice but if it go's on for the entire story it get's a tad boring.

My reading style...hm...use words, I like those. I like it if it sounds natural, like you just sat down and poured you're heart out, metaphorically.
Life. It's pretty good.
