Ongoing collaborationI love working with Chelsi. She's incredibly encouraging! She finds the points that writers just simply miss because we're too close to the character and story. Her in line commentary as she reads the story is incredibly valuable, giving us a real reader perspective of the story! Thanks so much for such an insightful beta read.
