About this Gig

I am looking to betaread your next novel!


Ensuring your manuscript appeals to readers is important at all stages of a book's life, whether you're looking to query agents or are intent on self-publishing. A comprehensive beta read can make the difference between a yes and a no, a positive review or a middling one. I want to assist you in your journey and give a fresh set of eyes to your story, to ensure you have the best chance of success.


While reading, I consider:

  • Pacing and flow
  • Character development and consistency
  • Dialogue authenticity
  • Clarity and readability
  • Emotional impact
  • World/setting impact


What you'll receive:

  • In-document comments
  • Honest, constructive feedback
  • A report with feedback on plot, pacing, characters, tone, and overall readability


How I work:

  • Google Docs or Word
  • Comments


Note:

  • No AI use


With over five years experience in book editing, I have worked with a broad range of books in the science-fiction/fantasy space. I hold a degree in editing and a law degree; attention to detail, story structure, and readability are my bread and butter.
