FAQ
What is a manuscript critique?
A manuscript critique is honest manuscript feedback from a real reader on your novel's plot, pacing, characters, dialogue and worldbuilding, delivered in a clear reader report.
Are you a beta reader or an alpha reader?
Both. I can be your beta reader for a finished draft or your alpha reader for an early draft, and I'll give you the same detailed novel critique either way.
Which genres do you critique?
Romance, fantasy, science fiction, thriller, mystery, suspense, horror, dystopian, YA, literary fiction, and some nonfiction and memoir.
What is included in the reader report?
You get what works, what to work on, where I was confused or lost interest, and my honest reader reaction to your characters and story.
Do you do proofreading, copy editing, or book editing?
No. This is a beta reader style book critique and manuscript review, not proofreading or editing.
Is this good for self publishing and literary agent submissions?
Yes. Many authors order a manuscript critique before self publishing or sending their novel to literary agents.
Can you critique my romance beta reader project or fantasy beta reader project?
Yes, romance and fantasy are some of my favorites. I look at chemistry, worldbuilding and emotional beats from a reader's point of view.
Can you give feedback on a partial manuscript or a first draft?
Yes. Send your first chapters or full draft, and I'll give manuscript feedback on what I read.
