I will be your bipoc, lgbtqia sensitivity reader

As a BIPOC person (I am of black Trinidadian descent), and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, who has been writing his own novel for the past six years, I am looking to help fellow creatives with their own manuscripts. Using my own lived experiences, I will provide an informed insight into the characters and their representation within your manuscript and help to highlight any difficulties or problems that may be present with the diversity in your cast. I am always on the lookout for, not only diversity in a cast, but for marginalised characters to be represented in an authentic way.

I will take a deep dive into your manuscript and provide feedback on the following areas:

• Stereotypes
• Voice and Dialogue - Do your characters speak naturally?
• Lived Experience - Do the characters speak of their experiences in a realistic manner?
• Coded Language or Microaggressions - It can happen but don't worry though, I will find them if they're there
• Biases In World Building - Are there some thinly veiled comparisons to real world cultures that are jarring?
• Dehumanization of ethnic characters
• Are they complex?

If this sounds like a good fit, please reach out!
