I will beta read your horror short story, novella, or novel
Manuscript Evaluator and Sensitivity Reader
About this Gig
As a writer primarily in the horror genre, I know how it feels to have someone read your story and either get grossed out, horrified, or simply not get it. Having a reader well versed in the beats, tropes, and expectations of the genre is key to developing your story to its greatest potential. As a beta reader, it's my mission to give you the kind of feedback you need to amplify your writing.
The kind of feedback you can expect from me will be:
- Honest insight on your overall story.
- Detailed report on your story's structure, pacing, characters, impact, and more.
- Inline comments throughout your document.
- Feedback on potential improvements if needed from the perspective of an experienced writer and avid horror reader
Suggestions and thoughts will be given line-by-line within either a MS Word document or a Google Doc, and you will receive a reader report upon completion. The reader report will detail overall opinions, suggestions, and other specific feedback not detailed in the line comments.
If you're looking for specific feedback not listed above, don't hesitate to reach out to me. I want to give you exactly the kind of feedback you need to have your story come to life.
