About this Gig
Let me offer both a reader's and a writer's perspective on your work. I know how hard it can be to share your writing with others, so I make sure to provide honest and in-depth critiques that are constructive, not destructive.
My focuses are on:
- The Hook Does your first line grab me? Do the first few pages?
- Characterization including motivation, development, consistency, and interplay
- Dialogue For conciseness and flow
- Pacing Scene, chapter, and book level
- Setting, Atmosphere, and Worldbuilding Does the setting feel alive?
- Plot and Conflict Are there any plot holes or inconsistencies?
- Tone Does the tone ever feel at odds with the story?
- Prose Including grammar, sentence syntax, and vocabulary
I provide in-line comments, a reader report, and a style sheet, and am happy to answer any additional questionnaires you submit. I also perform light editing (spelling mistakes, confusing sentences, distracting repetition, etc.) but this is not an editing service and comes as noticed. I also offer alpha reading services.
My specialties are Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Crime, and Romance, but am willing take on any genre. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

This is the third time I've worked with Eric. That's a testament and endorsement in itself. With so many alpha/beta readers taking manuscripts and putting them in AI to do the work (especially on Fiverr), trust is in an iffy place, but not with Eric.

Working with Eric is always a good experience, and he's reviewed my books for years now. For anyone considering approaching him for your work - just do it. I consider him a "foudational voice" for things to consider, and his insights are always on-point and exceedingly well thought out. That you again, Eric!

Once again, Eric provides vital insight and a masterful ability to assess the nature of the literature he's given. I find his feedback to be useful in that I am able to sense how a reader in my genre might react to my work with minimal front loading of back ground information.

Too many lol's written, it seemed a little too casual. Overall fine, I don't mind. Some good advice on what to improve and stuff about how characters pop in suddenly without introduction.
