I will beta read your manuscript, novel or other written work
About this Gig
Are you working on your novel alone? Is it difficult to separate yourself from your work? Would you value a second opinion and an independent perspective on your progress? If yes, you're in the right place!
As a beta reader, I will provide comprehensive feedback based on a positive and constructive approach. I will offer a summary including key highlights along with a detailed review or reader report for all packages. For completed drafts, I will include inline comments (standard & premium packages).
My reading interests cover both personal and professional contexts. My choices for personal reading are wide and varied; I mostly enjoy crime/thriller but as a beta reader my topics are open to all genres of fiction (including romance, fantasy, historical and futuristic).
Professionally, I am advanced reader to graduate level - my degree was in business management and can provide feedback on finance, project management, human resources and marketing. I am also comfortable with topics including European history, politics, and social reform.
If you wish to discuss your project further before commissioning work, I will answer questions and provide further background information.

FAQ
What level of spelling and grammar will be provided?
I am a fluent and native English speaker who is qualified to degree level (first class honours). I am comfortable writing and reading to a high academic level. My spelling and grammar would be based on English (UK) standards.
What topics will you review?
I am happy to provide beta reading on fiction (for a wide range of genres) and non-fiction (mainly business, social sciences and modern history). I can discuss further areas of interest if you would like to commission services.
Are there any topics you would refuse?
Services for non-fiction are limited to specific category areas where I have either professional experience (business management) or personal interest (history). I would refuse topics requiring expertise unless your work was introduction level and my critique would focus on its intended audience.
