About this Gig

Need a fresh pair of eyes to perfect your science fiction, fantasy, or horror manuscript? As an experienced beta reader with several years of experience, I approach each story with a focus on enhancing its strengths while giving constructive insights to refine its impact. Whether you're polishing a novel or a short story, I'll work with you to ensure your vision shines through, helping you craft a gripping narrative that resonates with readers.


After I read your novel/story, you'll receive a report on:

  • Plot holes and/or inconsistencies, including worldbuilding
  • Structure and readability
  • Character development
  • Believability of character traits and how the characters interact with each other


In addition to the report, I include a document with a list of questions that I answer for every story I read. The list of questions is attached to the listing.


If you have any questions or would like to discuss your specific needs, please don't hesitate to reach out! I'm more than happy to make custom offers!

    It was a pleasure working with Robert. He is genuinely polite, thoughtful, and has a down-to-earth, approachable style. His comments helped me identify places to improve clarity without losing the heart of the story, and he highlighted many of the moments that resonated with him as a reader. I would absolutely collaborate with him again.

    I'm very happy with the final report from Robert, and he was always quick to respond and give me more specific feedback. In the first round of comments I still had questions, but he was more than willing to provide more answers in reference to my further questions. I will use him again!
