About this Gig
Everyone can benefit from a second set of eyes on their manuscript. As a writer, I know that firsthand. I offer this beta reader service for fantasy manuscripts (children's, YA, NA, or adult). I'm open to any sub-genre, including urban fantasy, high fantasy, fantasy romance, dystopian, and more! I am open to other genres, but please reach out so we can discuss if it would be a good fit.
You can expect in-line commentary throughout with my honest reactions, comments, and questions in addition to a 2-4 page reader report. The reader report focuses on your characters (relatability, believability, goals), your setting (immersion, world building, description), and overall plot (pacing, cohesion, understandability). You can also choose to add-on chapter summaries and a sample line edit of the first 3k words of your manuscript.

FAQ
Can I get feedback on the beginning of my manuscript before committing to a full beta read?
I offer another service that offers an in-depth analysis of your book's hook, character introductions, and world building. The service is $5 for the first 3k words and would be a great way to trial my services.

Provided a real in depth look at my story with some great feedback on where improvements can be made. Excellent attention to detail and comments which will contribute greatly to my next editing run. Will definitely be recommending Emily to any author looking for a constructive beta reader.

When selecting a beta reader, always choose one who provides in-line comments, like Emily, in addition to a beta reader report. I highly recommend Emily's service. I understand that my manuscript was 92k+ words, so it takes time to do a beta read for it, so one needs to walk away and come back to it...
