The review I got as an alpha reading was exceptional. I've read through the comments and I'm able to shape now how I think I should go about my novel! I appreciate the timeliness of the work and the quality itself.

About this Gig
Are you a brand new writer, and need help finding someone to read your less-than-perfect manuscript? Have you finished a few chapters and want to make sure your story is headed in the right direction? Are you just lost in your story and need a second pair of eyes?
I can help. I will quickly provide a low-cost critique of your short story or novel. I love to read books of all kinds--any genre or level of completion.
I accept all manuscripts--whether it's a short story, a few chapters, or a sweeping epic fantasy. This listing is for anyone looking for an alpha reader, which means your manuscript can be a hot mess. An alpha reader is the first person you show your story to, even before an editor.
Please do not hesitate to send me a less than perfectly edited manuscript. (This service does not include editing, but I will give you a heads up when I notice typos.)
I will read it and tell you what I loved and what I didn't love quite as much. If you are looking for a harsh or brutal reader, that is not me. I strive to provide gentle but honest criticism that will motivate you to continue your writing journey. Let me know how I can help you.

Fantastic work. She left detailed notes that really proved she was engaging with the text. Her advice was reasonable, polite, and helpful. She even pointed out typos, although I had only asked for “big picture” feedback. I got everything I paid for and more.
