About this Gig
Hi there, romance authors! Every manuscript deserves a dedicated beta reader who can step into the story as a real reader and give honest feedback. I'll read your YA romance or sapphic romance fiction with attention to the elements that keep readers turning pages.
As your beta reader, I'll focus on your reading experience: plot flow, pacing, character development, chemistry, emotional impact, dialogue, clarity, consistency, and scenes that feel confusing, rushed, or slow. I'll share first impressions and highlight what is working well.
You'll receive detailed beta reading feedback with reader reactions, strengths, areas for revision, and practical suggestions to strengthen your story. My goal is to help you see your manuscript from a fresh reader's perspective before publication or querying.
I welcome YA romance, sapphic romance, and related fiction manuscripts. Please message me before ordering, especially for manuscripts over 75k words, so we can confirm the right package and work with a custom offer.

FAQ
Do you beta read unfinished manuscripts?
Yes. Your manuscript does not need to be completely polished before beta reading. I can provide reader-focused feedback on drafts that are ready for an outside perspective.
What file format should I send?
You can send your manuscript as a Word document, PDF, or Google Docs link. Please make sure the text is easy to read and accessible.
Do you read manuscripts longer than 75,000 words?
Yes, but please message me before ordering for manuscripts over 75,000 words so we can discuss the scope, timeline, and the most suitable option.
Will you give feedback on romance and character chemistry?
Absolutely. I pay close attention to romantic development, character chemistry, emotional moments, relationship dynamics, and whether the romance feels natural and engaging.
Will my manuscript be kept confidential?
Yes. Your manuscript and any information you share with me will be treated as private and confidential and will not be shared publicly.
Can I request feedback on specific concerns?
Yes. You can tell me what you are most concerned about before I begin, such as pacing, character development, plot clarity, emotional impact, or reader engagement, and I’ll keep those concerns in mind while reading.
Can I message you before placing an order?
Yes, and I encourage it for longer manuscripts or projects with specific requirements. Send me your word count, genre, and any particular concerns you have so we can make sure the order is a good fit.
