Nope, this is the perfect place to ask-- even if the entry this is in is a bit, er "unrelated" to betasquad. ^^;
Comments in the story are based on anything that you think is noteworthy about the story, good or bad. Authors are (at least *I* am, and I post there to get my stuff beta'd) always looking for people to point out: * bad characterization * confusing plot lines * bad spelling and/or grammar * the appearance of a Mary-Sue/Marty-Stu * places where the narrative/dialogue is lacking
And so on. It's always nice to have some good things pointed out as well, but we're obviously not looking for flat-out reviws like "OMGZsquee! continue!" with no concrit whatsoever.
Honesty is the best policy, so if you see something lacking or confusing in a fic posted there, we ask that you point it out.
