I will beta read your manuscript
About this Gig
Get detailed, professional structural feedback on your story from a published writer with an MFA in Creative Writing.
Reading your own manuscript objectively is almost impossible. As an experienced writer and editor with a Masters degree in Creative Writing, I provide comprehensive, constructive feedback to help you elevate your manuscript before query submission or self-publishing.
What I focus on in every critique:
- Plot & Pacing: Tension, structural consistency, plot holes, and narrative momentum.
- Characterization: Arc plausibility, voice distinction, depth, and motivation.
- Worldbuilding & Scene Craft: Immersion, dialogue rhythm, and show-vs-tell balance.
- Reader Experience: Emotional engagement, chapter hooks, and honest reader reactions.
What you will receive:
- A detailed In-Depth Reader's Report (310 pages depending on word count) breaking down strengths, areas of improvement, and actionable solutions.
- Line-by-line reactions/comments directly on your manuscript (upon request).
Note: This service focuses on story mechanics, structure, and characterization. If you need line editing or proofreading, check out my editing gig!

FAQ
Will you correct my grammar or typos in this service?
No. Beta reading focuses on high-level narrative mechanics—plot structure, character arcs, pacing, worldbuilding, and reader engagement. If you need typos, punctuation, or grammar corrected, please check my Copy Editing & Proofreading gig!
What format should I send my manuscript in?
I accept .doc, .docx, or Google Docs links. Please ensure the text is fully accessible and editable so I can leave marginal notes if requested.
Do you accept manuscripts in both English and Spanish?
Yes! I am fully bilingual and offer structural reader reports for stories written in either English or Spanish.
Do you read explicit/NSFW content or specific genres?
I read most fiction and non-fiction genres (fantasy, sci-fi, romance, thrillers, literary fiction), that includes any type of content (explicit/NSFW). However, I do request a content warning beforehand in case of graphic shock content or hate speech.
