I absolutely adore reading fanfictions. Sometimes, I fear that's all I do in my free time, but as a prospective author, I suppose I can safely say reading other authors, may it be fanfiction, will improve my own writing. I enjoy reading and writing in my spare time. I must say that my favorite fanfiction by far, is 'The Sidhe' by Chazzam. I would also like to point out that I didn't check yes or no for beta, because I have never been a beta for anyone before, unless you count being forced to read other people's essays when I was in college. Nonetheless, I'm interested in learning to be someone who can critique someone else's work, as I would like to have the same courtesy extended to me. I, however, have never written a fanfiction, although I enjoy reading them. If someone wishes me to attempt to be a beta, I will do my best.
