About this Gig
Worried your manuscript might misrepresent a culture, identity, or lived experience or lose readers before chapter three?
Publishing a book that mishandles sensitive material can trigger review bombing, canceled pre-orders, and public backlash that's nearly impossible to walk back and even without that risk, a story with pacing issues, flat character arcs, or worldbuilding gaps rarely holds readers to the end.
I provide professional sensitivity reading and developmental beta reading for dark fantasy, romantasy, sci-fi, and literary fiction.
I flag harmful stereotypes, inaccurate representation, and tone-deaf portrayals of race, culture, disability, religion, or trauma while also assessing pacing, character believability, plot holes, and overall reader engagement.
You'll receive a detailed written report covering:
- Representation & sensitivity flags with context
- Chapter-by-chapter reader reactions
- Pacing, tension, and structural notes
- Character motivation and arc consistency
- An honest, constructive overall assessment
Every note is specific and actionable no vague "loved it" feedback. Send your manuscript and let's make sure it's ready for real readers.

FAQ
What's the difference between sensitivity reading and beta reading?
What's the difference between sensitivity reading and beta reading? Sensitivity reading focuses specifically on how identities, cultures, and experiences outside your own are portrayed, flagging stereotypes or inaccuracies. Beta reading looks at the whole story: pacing, character arcs, plot holes,
Do I need to tell you which sensitive topics to focus on?
It helps! When you place your order, let me know any specific identities, cultures, or experiences in your manuscript you'd like extra attention on (e.g., disability, religion, race, trauma). If you're not sure, I'll flag anything that stands out during the read.
What format should I send my manuscript in?
Word document (.docx) or PDF work best. Please send the full, edited draft not a rough outline or incomplete draft so the feedback reflects your actual story.
Will you tell me if something is "problematic" or just flag it?
Both. I'll flag the specific passage, explain why it may land poorly with readers or the community it involves, and suggest how you might revise it the decision to change it is always yours.
Can I ask follow-up questions after I receive my report?
Yes, within reason. Standard and Premium packages include a notes call for follow-up discussion. Basic package buyers can ask brief clarifying questions via message after delivery.
