About this Gig

You have spent long hours pouring your heart into your book, and now you have finally finished. Congratulations! Now you want to know if your work is ready for public consumption. That's where I come in. I will be your honest and objective beta reader. I will give you the point of view of your target audience and provide you with feedback on places that may need improvement. I follow A Hero's Journey and The Story Grid story structure methodologies in my own writing and while beta reading. I will also proofread your book at an additional cost.


What you will get:

  • Microsoft Word doc containing comments that I make as I read.
  • Spreadsheet with feedback on various aspects such as plot, characters, storyline, dialogue, pacing, etc.
  • An honest critique of the overall book.
  • Address any questions or concerns you may have.


Why am I qualified to be your beta reader? I am a writer myself, who has used beta readers in the past. I know firsthand how invaluable a good beta reader can be to producing the best work possible.


Genres I specialize in:

  • Romance
  • New and Young Adult
  • Thriller/Mystery
  • Fantasy
  • Science Fiction
  • Historical
