LGBTQ Romance Beta Sensitivity Reader Honest Feedback
About this Gig
Your LGBTQ+ romance manuscript needs a reader who pays attention, not one who glances through and calls it good.
I provide combined beta reading and sensitivity reading built specifically for LGBTQ+ romance, covering MM romance, sapphic romance, queer fiction, and non-binary storylines.
What's included:
- Sensitivity notes flagging any moments that could land as stereotyped, rushed, or off to queer readers
- Story feedback on pacing, emotional beats, and whether the central romance genuinely works
- Character notes on authenticity, checking whether your queer characters read as real people, fully formed
- All comments delivered inline through Google Docs, tied directly to the exact page and line
Nothing generic here; every note ties back to your specific manuscript and the readers you're writing for.
Best fit for: authors of MM romance, sapphic romance, or LGBTQ+ fiction who want direct, usable feedback before their book goes out into the world.

FAQ
Will you actually read my whole manuscript, or just skim it?
I read every page, start to finish. My feedback report references specific chapters and scenes throughout not just the opening and ending, so you can see the full read reflected in my notes.
Do you understand LGBTQ+ romance specifically, or just romance in general?
Yes, I read widely in LGBTQ+ romance, including MM, sapphic, bisexual, and non-binary storylines, and I pay close attention to how representation lands for queer readers, not just whether the plot works.
Will you tell me if something isn't working, even if it's hard to hear?
Always. You're p a ying for honest feedback, not reassurance. I'll tell you clearly what's working and what isn't, with specific examples , delivered respectfully, but never softened to the point of being unhelpful.
What exactly does the sensitivity reading part cover?
I flag moments that may read as stereotyped, rushed, or inauthentic to queer readers: things like flattened character motivations, tokenized side characters, or tropes that can feel dismissive of real queer experience.
What word count or manuscript length do you accept?
Novellas to full-length novels, up to 100k words. For longer manuscripts, message me first so we can discuss timeline and pricing.
How is feedback delivered?
You'll receive a written feedback report plus inline comments on your manuscript via Google Docs, Word docs so you can see exactly where and why each note applies.
