    That was the most comprehensive, detailed advice I've ever received. Shelby analyzed my story in depth and provided an amazing amount of observations and suggestions for improvement. Seriously, I'm blown away. Highly recommend to anyone needing help with their writing.

    Shelby did an absolutely fantastic job of being my very first beta reader and she was a star! I wanted constructive criticism and help with first impressions on characters too, but Shelby went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend her and I will be coming back with parts 2 and 3 of my manuscript in the future! :)
