About this Gig
I hold a Bachelors in English Literature and a Masters and PhD in Linguistics, with 6 years of professional editing experience, giving me a strong foundation in language, style, and narrative craft. But beyond academia, Regency and historical romance has been my guilty pleasure since my teens, from witty Austen heroines to brooding dukes, I've loved them all.
As your beta reader, I combine scholarly insight with a romance lovers heart. I'll provide clear, supportive feedback on:
- ️ Characters & chemistry: Do they feel real? Does the tension spark?
- Genre accuracy: Dialogue, manners, and setting true to the period.
- Emotional impact: Are the romantic beats satisfying and well-timed?
- Story flow: Pacing, plot arcs, and reader engagement.
My feedback highlights what's working while suggesting actionable improvements, always with kindness. Whether you're writing an Austen-inspired Regency tale, a tale of Scottish Lairds or a sweeping historical romance, I'll help you refine your story so it resonates with readers.

FAQ
Will you check grammar and spelling?
This gig is focused on beta reading and big-picture feedback, not copyediting. I’ll note patterns I see, but for detailed proofreading, I recommend a separate service.
Do you only accept Regency romance?
No! While Regency is my specialty, I also beta read other historical romance subgenres (Victorian, Medieval, early 20th-century, etc.).
Can you provide sensitivity feedback?
Yes, especially regarding cultural or historical portrayals. I’ll flag anything that feels anachronistic or out of step with the time period.
Do you beta read other genres?
For this gig, I focus on Regency and historical romance. If you have another genre in mind, feel free to message me for a custom offer.
