Name: David
Beta Experience: None, but I've always offered to proofread anything.
Strengths: I was editor-in-chief for my high school paper, which left me with somewhat of a grammar nazi streak. I enjoy writing and I'm detail-oriented.
Weaknesses: I can be too much of a grammar nazi. However, if something is unclear to me, I always make it a point to ask what the writer is trying to convey.
What ratings will you do?: Any.
What couples will you do? (canon, un-canon): Any, especially if they're believable.
What Fandoms will you do?: In addition to Twilight? I'm familiar with Buffy and Angel. You can always ask me- I read and watch a lot.
Will you do crossovers?: Depends. Crossovers for me are always tricky, because you're playing by more than one universe's rules. I'll take a look. If it's not believable, I'll tell you so.
Availability: Most anytime.
Do you write? (link to own fics): Yes, I do, actually. My banner below links to my fanfics. I have two at the moment- one mine, one co-written with a good friend here at the Lex- and I am in the process of writing another of my own.
