Yeah. English isn't my first language either, and the main reason that I usually end up as the beta reader is that I am a quick poster and a marginally competent writer. If you have any suggestions for improving my performance, I'm all ears.I understand English is not your first language. With that in mind, you really need a better beta. Your novellas are still full of very basic, very obvious grammatical errors.
If English isnt your first language, thats fine. I wont expect absolute perfection from you, but your betas should know better.
Figures... are you volunteering?Its the whole gamut of grammatical errors. There is no particular pattern.
Second on google docs being damn useful. I try to help people, and when it comes to the people who don't have their stuff for me to help with on Google documents it feels like going from driving a car to riding a crappy bike. Tons of effort to get a little benefit.Gentlemen, I've got some dedicated betas myself. I swear by using google docs. It updates in realtime, tracks who did it, and comes with a handy spell-checker for last minute stuff.
Also, Microsoft word's grammar checker is sweet. Get that shit if you can.
Thirded. I'm using it for 'Seeing Further' myself.Gentlemen, I've got some dedicated betas myself. I swear by using google docs. It updates in realtime, tracks who did it, and comes with a handy spell-checker for last minute stuff.
Wait, hold on. I dream of becoming a starship, and I fail to see how such an event would in the slightest make me less human. Bodies aren't that important, are they?Ah Winter the AI who believed he was human, who now after learning the truth dreams of becoming a star-ship.
Its actually a bit strange/unique seeing the AI character want to become less human.
Well when I Google Homo Sapien I get a picture of a naked man and not a star-ship.Wait, hold on. I dream of becoming a starship, and I fail to see how such an event would in the slightest make me less human. Bodies aren't that important, are they?

I'm fairly firmly in the 'human values' camp on that. What matters to you? Is it these things? Then your human enough to join the group. What makes up said group of values is a big debate of course, especially since essentially every trek species is liable to qualify under that logic. But I'm more interested in 'are they a person?' then defining 'human'.I suppose its ultimately whatever your definition of human is.
The way I see it, to be human is to be a member of the biological species Homo Sapiens Sapiens. To be a person, however, one just needs to be sapient.Wait, hold on.

I was gonna say something about it being a question of who you are, not what you are, but you put it much better.The way I see it, to be human is to be a member of the biological species Homo Sapiens Sapiens. To be a person, however, one just needs to be sapient.
All humans are "People" but not all people are "Human".
That's no reason not to keep the mini-reaper around.
Pretty sure he's actually a little orb in a Shuttle with Geth Platform he's attached too...
