I will be your critical beta reader for your novel
Professional Beta Reader
About this Gig
Are you looking for an honest, deeply insightful perspective on your manuscript before you publish or query?
As a beta reader, I focus on the soul of your story, not misplaced commas. Having immersed myself in over 2,000 literary and women's fiction novels, I know exactly what keeps modern readers turning pages - and what makes them put a book down.
My reading taste is grounded in master storytellers. If your work is inspired by the sharp wit and structural genius of Percival Everett, the atmospheric, slow-burn literary depth of Donna Tartt, or the unputdownable pacing and tension of Stephen King, we are a perfect match. I provide the intuitive, macro-level feedback of your exact target audience.
What I evaluate:
- The Hook: Does chapter one grab the reader?
- Pacing and Tension: Where does the story drag or rush?
- Character Arcs: Are they compelling and consistent?
- Plot and Subplots: Are there plot holes or unsatisfying payoffs?
You receive: A comprehensive, constructive Reader Report detailing my honest consumer reactions.
(Please Note: This is strictly for structural, critical beta reading. I do not offer proofreading or line editing.)
