About this Gig
Are you writing a Middle Grade (MG) or Young Adult (YA) novel?
Writing for younger audiences is a masterclass in voice. Kids and teens are the most brutally honest readers in the worldif a character's dialogue feels "cringe," outdated, or forced, they will close the book. Furthermore, parents, teachers, and librarians hold strict standards for what fits into specific age brackets.
As an avid reader of MG and YA fiction, I will beta read your manuscript to ensure your characters feel authentic, your pacing stays snappy, and your story perfectly hits the sweet spot for your target age group.
What I focus on during my read:
- Age-Voice Accuracy
- Pacing & Engagement
- High-Stakes & Relatability
- Market Appropriateness
What you will receive:
- Honest Inline Comments: Real-time reader reactions directly on your document (MS Word or Google Docs) showing what worked, what confused me, and where I fell in love with the characters.
- Detailed Reader Report: A structured critique analyzing plot, pacing, character development, and market positioning.
Let's work together to make your story a favorite on school and library shelves! Send me a message if you have a custom word count.

FAQ
What is the difference between Middle Grade (MG) and Young Adult (YA)?
Middle Grade books are written for kids ages 8 to 12. They feature protagonists in that same age bracket and focus on themes like family, identity, and friend groups without mature content.
Do you check if my vocabulary is appropriate for children or teens?
Yes! A major part of my beta read is checking "age-voice" and accessibility.
Do you accept graphic novel or comic scripts?
Absolutely! I am happy to read illustrated scripts or comic layouts intended for MG or YA audiences.
What genres within MG and YA do you accept?
I accept almost all subgenres, including fantasy, sci-fi, dystopian, contemporary, mystery, and paranormal.
Will you rewrite or edit my dialogue if it sounds "cringe" or unrealistic?
No, my role is to act as a beta reader rather than a ghostwriter or editor.
