About this Gig
***Please message me first to confirm availability to avoid order cancellations.***
I love reading fantasy! As a beta reader, I have no triggers and prefer stories with a darker tone. Any level of spice is welcome, and nothing is too dark for me to read. I specialize in dark fantasy, romantasy, sword and sorcery, and grimdark. If my schedule allows, I am open to epic and high fantasy as well. I do not beta read paranormal, urban, portal fantasy, or any range of sci-fi (basically nothing set in our world). I love helping authors fine-tune their stories, and I comment with honest feedback/reactions as I read so you know exactly how I'm feeling in the moment as a reader. If selected, will provide a reader report focusing on plot, pacing, character development, worldbuilding, prose, and dialogue. If I notice typos, I will point them out, unless there are too many that would prevent me from providing valuable feedback and/or completing on time.
I am not an editor. I will be honest, and I do not provide empty flattery.

Lesli delivered well ahead of schedule, which was already a fantastic start. She clearly has a deep familiarity with the fantasy genre, and it showed in every note. The inline comments were especially valuable, and on top of that, her detailed beta report was thorough and thoughtful. Exactly the kind of feedback a manuscript needs. Highly recommend!

She did not just tell me whether something worked or did not work. She showed me where the suspense landed, where the emotional beats connected, where the...
