About this Gig

My 'day job' is incredibly cerebral, with big clinical words and deep thinking required, so in my 'down time' I like to read light (or dark) romantic novels or novellas.


As part of the beta read, I will look for:

  • The opening - does it hook the reader?
  • The characters - am I interested in these people? What do I know about them? Can I picture them?
  • Locating plot holes - are there things that just don't make sense or are particularly unrealistic 
  • Flow and pacing - does one scene lead into the next or does it read as if there are scenes missing
  • Looking at dialogue - does it flow naturally?
  • Identifying inconsistencies
  • Evaluating plot twists
  • Does the story make me want to read more of your work? 
  • Spotting repetitive words, excessive use of particular words, overuse of phrases


The standard feedback form has over 30 questions and also provides a summary of thoughts on each chapter. 


I read both US and UK English, and am happy to work in either. 


Preferred format for reading (basic) is .mobi though I can create my own from PDF if needed. 

Genre:

Romance

Language:

English

    Lushka is great. I love her reports and feedback. I like the focus of the outline and that I can get a sense of the story as a whole. Will work with her again. :)

    Super! I like the questionnaire reports Luschke offers. They simplify the process for the beta read and help me keep the focus of the project. They are also encouraging to see what I have done that was enjoyed.. This is the second time of using her services and I will use them again.

    Great. Luschka was very quick to do the work earlier than was expected. She was helpful when I asked for clarification and it was a pleasure to work with her. A very good experience.
