My approach: I believe feedback should be honest AND kind. I'll tell you what's working beautifully and what needs attention. I'm always in service of helping your story become the best version of itself.

FAQ
What genres do you read?
I specialize in fiction across multiple genres including fantasy, historical fiction, romance, and contemporary fiction. Message me if you’re unsure whether your genre is a good fit.
How long is the feedback report?
Reports typically run 3–8 pages depending on word count and what I find—detailed enough to be genuinely useful and specific enough to be immediately actionable.
Is this the same as an editorial assessment?
Beta reading is a reader’s perspective focused on story experience. An editorial assessment is a more formal professional evaluation. Beta reading is the right starting point for most manuscripts before investing in full editorial services.
Do you make edits to the manuscript itself?
Beta reading is feedback only. I read your manuscript and deliver a written report. If you’d like line-level edits, my copyediting gig is the right service.
What if my manuscript is longer than 120,000 words?
Message me before ordering and I’ll create a custom package for your word count.
