About this Gig

Are you looking for an LGBTQIA+ beta reader for your manuscript? Would you benefit from advice on story structure, theme, and character development, all from a reader who understands one of the communities you're representing? Look no further!


I will beta read your LGBTQIA+ novel and provide helpful feedback on the novel itself and the portrayal of any LGBTQIA+ characters. Feel free to request focus on any specific character or plotline in the story.


A bit about me: I've identified as a lesbian for over a decade (although I've also identified as bisexual and queer in the past) and use she/they pronouns. I'm very up-to-date on social issues and trends within the community and can gently direct you toward proper terminology and portrayals of LGBTQIA+ characters in your manuscript. I am also well-versed in LGBTQIA+ history, taking multiple courses on the subject and studying it regularly, so I'm happy to answer questions and clarify facts if your story involves the history of the community as well!


If you're a returning client interested in working with me again (with an updated draft or new story entirely), message me before booking for a lil discount! :-)

    It's rare to find a beta reader who resonates with your work so much that you *want* the negative feedback. Elle is that reader. Her detailed notes on every point, both affirming and corrective, showed me how deeply she invested in the read. She gave me a clear launch for my next revision. I'm sure you'll be seeing more of my reviews popping up in her feed!

    Elle is one of my favourite beta readers and always picks up on stuff that others miss and gives a different perspective. Do not hesitate to use her, she's fab! Thank you again!

    I appreciate the attention to detail. All the comments and feedback in the reader report are beyond what I expected. All the tips and suggestions in the reader report are going to be so helpful. Thank you so much for all your hard work and kind words.

    One of the things I think is so great about Elle is her honesty. It's essential to any writer to get a feel of what works, what doesn't, and what could be improved slightly. Elle is great at this. One of my go-to betas!
