About this Gig
Are you looking for a reliable beta reader?
I help authors bring out the best in their books. I have been beta-reading since 2019.
I will beta-read your story and provide honest and actionable feedback. I pay attention to opening lines, character development, pacing, tone, level of engagement in each chapter, central conflict/resolution, character motivation, and overall reader experience. My critique will be honest and constructive.
I enjoy reading;
- Romance
- Fantasy
- Magical realism
- Women's Fiction
- Thrillers/Mystery
- Literary fiction
- YA
- Middle-grade fiction
- Non-fiction
- True crime
My critique will focus on a story's elements, with in-line comments and a comprehensive reader report. I will give your story a personal touch by connecting with the characters. I look forward to being part of your success story.
I will be your sensitivity reader concerning infertility based on firsthand experience.
Message me or place your order.
Note: I don't read poetry!
