I will beta read your story and investigate what is not working
I investigate stories
About this Gig
Not every story that feels wrong is broken.
Sometimes it's just one missing connection.
One weak motivation.
One scene that quietly breaks the chain of cause and effect.
That's what I look for.
If your story feels "almost there" but something keeps pulling readers out of it, I'll help you identify exactly where the problem begins.
I'll investigate your story's structure, pacing, character logic and narrative flow to understand not only what isn't working - but why.
You'll receive:
- A clear diagnosis of the main structural issues.
- Practical recommendations.
- Honest reader reactions.
- Actionable next steps.
Not every story needs an autopsy.
Sometimes it just needs the right diagnosis.
"Something feels off" isn't enough. I'll tell you where, and why.

FAQ
How is this different from a regular beta read?
A regular beta read tells you what a reader felt. I go one step further. I identify where your story starts losing readers, why it happens, and what you can do to fix it.
Will you rewrite my story?
No. I don't rewrite your manuscript. Instead, I explain why something isn't working and give you practical recommendations so you can improve it while keeping your own voice.
What kinds of stories do you analyze?
I work with novels, novellas and short stories across most genres. My focus is always the same: structure, pacing, character logic, narrative flow and reader engagement.
What if I don't know what's wrong with my story?
Perfect. That's exactly who this service is for. If your manuscript feels "almost there" but something isn't clicking, I'll help identify the source of the problem.
Will you be honest?
Always. My goal isn't to praise or discourage you. It's to help you understand exactly what works, what doesn't, and why.
Can this help before querying agents or self-publishing?
Absolutely. Many structural problems are much easier to fix before publication. Finding them early can save months of revisions later.
