I will tear apart your book and help you put it back together

What I offer: Beta reading that's closer to what you'd get with a high-priced developmental edit. I'll find what isn't working, why it isn't working, and how you can improve your manuscript. I also know when not to comment. If something's working, I won't say it's not just to make it appear as if I've 'worked harder.' A good beta knows when to say nothing at all.

I'll focus on:

My connection to the character (Am I rooting for them?)

Lack of tension/conflict in pages (Am I bored?)

Story arc (Am I satisfied?)

Info dumps (Am I yawning?)

Plot holes (Am I confused anywhere?)

Descriptions (Am I immersed?)

Why pick me: Because I care about you and your writing journey.

What you'll get:

HONEST but kind In-line comments.

Real-time reactions

Corrected dialogue tags/action beats

Corrected grammar/syntax (if I spot them)

Suggestions for improvement
