What is a BETA? 12 Years, 4 Months ago Karma: 0
I know this will make me sound like the biggest noobon th planet but I'm wondering what exactly is a BETA in terms of writing Fanfiction? What do they do? Could someone help me out? I'm new to the game and trying to improve as a writer.

Do NOT feel like a noob.

A beta is someone who looks over your work. They clean it up grammatically, point out errors (like missed words,etc.), give their opinion on the flow of a chapter/oneshot, and they can help with plot development and charaterizations. In other words, betas are pretty awesome.

Dokuga has a thread for betas and here is the link.

Hope this helps, and happy writing!

I write to tell stories. I believe that there a some professions in the world that will last forever: doctor or a nurse, teacher, builder and a storyteller. I write also to become myself, more so day by day. Writing is a way to shape out visible and invisible, in myself as well as in the world.
