About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Welcome to my Beta Reading Service! I have a true passion for working with authors with all kinds of audiences by helping you identify what is and isn't working in your story. I've beta read books in multiple genres including, but not limited to: romantic suspense, mystery/thrillers, memoirs, adventure, true crime, and more.
Writing a book can be incredibly daunting, so if you're reading this: CONGRATULATIONS! YOU DID IT!
Now, I'm ready to help you get your book ready to publish and keep your readers coming back for more!
Not sure your new contemporary short story will work for your audience? Worried about the commercial appeal of your romantic suspense novel?
I'm here to help!
Your Reader Report will include constructive feedback on:
- Opening (the first 5 pages are some of the most important!)
- Plot and Pace (make it impossible to not read that next chapter!)
- Characterization (make sure your characters feel real!)
- Dialogue and Language (natural-sounding dialogue is key!)
- Setting and Structure (connect your audience to a new world!)
*Note: If you need complete book editing, I offer an Add-On. Message me directly with any questions.
