Sorry for any inconvenience but I prefer not to beta-read any humour, or angst.
Comments :
I have a knack for spotting spelling and punctuation mistakes, I prefer beta-reading stories set in events that we have seen but have only been referred to, i.e. the Great Hyperspace War. I am a fan of EU novels and games, and I count The Phantom Menace (I know, sorry!) and the Empire Strikes Back as my two favourite movies. I have previously written about six pieces of Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel fanfiction on the Watchers Diary Board, which can be found at forums.buffyguide.com. I am near completeing my first proper Star Wars fanfic, but in the past I have written countless SW stories that were never finished.
Limits :
I will not under any circumstances read any prequel related story!!!! I cannot put up with any of the crap George Lucas invented there... so don't even ask me to glance at your works in episode 1 or 2... Besides, there are already way too many stories set in that time frame already, and after ROTJ is where all os the action in the Star Wars Expanded Universe really happens.
Comments :
I enjoy all characters introduced in the Expanded Universe after ROTJ, and I'm a writing major so I'm good at checking spelling and punctuation as well as grammar on anything. Being a college student, however, somewhat limits the amount of time I have to read stories by people, and if your story is longer than ten pages, count me out of reading it, because I don't have the time to do so between studying and sleeping.
Limits :
Pornographic or otherwise just completely over the top stuff. If you've seen it in Star Wars already, it's fine with me. If you don't think it would ever be included, even considering EU and AU, try to think a bit harder..
Comments :
I'm.. cool?
Does anyone even read all these? I think not. And if they do, considering I just shifted myself from 'mutantjedibouer' (Cringe at young-self's spelling of bouer..) to 'Spin_cycle', I'm even further back in the list. XP

Nothing much. As long as it's in my territory, like characters and genres and services, I'll be fine to beta-read it.
Comments :
I love Prequel stories that involve Anakin, Padme and/or Obi-Wan. Romance, adventure, angst, drama, it's all here.
I can do some Classic Trilogy stuff, perfer characters like Han or Luke, but I favorite Classic character is Darth Vader, hands down.
My expertise is evil and villinary stuff. I like to face-pace my stories and keep them interesting. If I do adventure, there's going to be a lot of action. Romance, a lot of love making and/or kissing, and other is notable.
