Amber never disappoints me with her insights and always makes my work better. I think I might be her hype-woman, but the fact that I keep going back to her is all you need to know.

I have written so many reviews of Amber that I cannot count. She is worth any engagement you can send her way, from beta reading through editing of any type. She's great and worth every time I've hired her.
About this Gig
*For trigger warnings, read the FAQ below*
You've spent months getting your vision into words; now it's my turn to polish them from a manuscript to a book!
I professionally beta read manuscripts for a top literary agency for nearly two years and earned my B.A. in Creative Writing. I specialize in young adult and middle grade stories, and I want to help your story get on those coveted bookshelves.
What I will do for beta reading:
- Provide feedback on the plot (what I enjoy, what doesn't make sense)
- Review characters for believability
- Analyze the pacing, setting, POV, voice, and dialogue
- Provide overall thoughts
These reviews will be written down in a report that I will send to you, along with corresponding page numbers of any large overlying inconsistencies or change in style. I don't
I valued my time with the literary agency, and I loved seeing the manuscripts I beta read for my assigned agent end up in bookstores 2-3 years later. I am an expert in the YA field and love watching the new upcoming authors share their favorite characters.
If you're ready to take your manuscript to the next level, I'm the reader to get it there.

FAQ
How many manuscripts did you beta read for your agency internship?
From 2015 to 2016, I read 71 manuscripts (56 were Young Adult).
Are you published?
I am published in the poetry anthology Hometown, Texas, compiled by 2010 Texas Poet Laureate Karla K. Morton. I also published a short story and an ethnographic journalism piece while in college with my university's literary magazine, Borderzine.
Is English your native language?
Yes! I was born and raised in Texas, USA and still reside in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Is there any sub-genre of Young Adult you don't beta read for?
At this time, I will not beta read horror manuscripts. I'm too scared to even look at a Stephen King book cover.
What are trigger warnings you won't work with?
As of this time, I will not work with any manuscript that includes explicit scenes with animal abuse, child abuse, or r*pe. The mention of past events is acceptable, but if you have anything that includes these topics as scenes played out on the page, I am NOT the reader for your manuscript.
