The depth of MJ's feedback completely blew me away. She provided a highly detailed report for my ~98k-word fantasy novel, along with extensive in-line comments....
About this Gig
Please contact me before placing any orders.
I promise to aid you in putting your best work forward, every time.
If you want to get inside a reader's mind and truly understand how your manuscript is performingthen look no further.
As an avid reader and a writer, I know writing a novel is a labour love with blood, sweat and tears blurring the keyboard. For the final stages, you need fresh eyes. Let me be yours.
I will take the time to get to know your project, focus my attention on the specific questions you have to curate a detailed reader report which analyses every aspect of your work. If you choose me, I can guarantee that your report will be extensive and you will have access to every note, thought and question which I discover whilst reading.
My focus revolves around answering your questions and discovering where your plot leads the reader. Considering the likability and success of the characters you create, as well as how deep you draw in the reader from the very first sentence.
My intention is never to just 'read your book.' I want you to reach new heights as an author, elevate your writing and push you towards excellence.

FAQ
Do you use AI?
Nope. I use absolutely zero AI. All words, thoughts and comments are completely my own. Always.
What is included in your gig?
Every reader report covers a range of topics, including: Plot, Pacing, World Building, Characterisation and Character Development, Impact of Key Relationships, and Problems Discovered. As well as including In-Line Comments, and Chapter by Chapter Reports. My average is 10-15 pages long!
What makes you different?
Every report receives my complete focus and I like to tailor the report to every individual's needs. Plot holes and inconsistencies are my speciality, my brain locks onto the details! I'm a firm believer in giving authors the tools for success, because every book deserves to be read and truly loved.
Do you have any triggers?
No, I'm happy to read pretty much anything and everything.
My genre isn't listed, what can I do?
I read most genres, if yours is not included then just message me and ask. I'm happy to read the majority of genres but I have a special interest in Romance, Fantasy, Sci-fi and Thriller!

I honestly couldn't have asked for a better beta reader. The level of detail MJ put into both her inline comments and the final report absolutely blew me away. She didn't just point out what worked or didn't work, she also explained why and often offered thoughtful suggestions. What I appreciated most,...

I’m dependent on Mj’s reviews by now!! 😝 Having Mj review my changes after her initial report was such a good call, even just for my confidence. Quick delivery during busy school holiday time—very very much appreciated. Useful commentary as always.

Mj provided such thoughtful and detailed feedback with clears insights on my characters and pacing. I especially appreciated the focused notes on internal character development and can't wait to implement it. The report was well organized and gave me pointers for revisions. I would definitely use her services again.

MJ absolutely exceeded my expectations when reviewing my manuscript! I found her attention to detail extremely insightful, and she had no hesitations letting me know what wasn't working, exactly what I needed to make my next edits. Her feedback on the things that needed work was actionable and thorough. I would 100% work with her again.
