About this Gig
I'll read your sci-fi, thriller, or mystery manuscript as an engaged reader and give you the kind of feedback an editor would not just "I liked it," but specific, actionable notes on what's working and what isn't.
I have a background in English and editing, so alongside honest reader reactions, you'll get real craft-level insight: pacing, plot logic, character consistency, and genre-specific expectations (yes, thriller pacing and mystery clue-placement actually matter, and I know the difference).
What you get:
- A full read of your manuscript, cover to cover
- A detailed reader report: what worked, what confused me, where tension dropped
- Notes on pacing, plot holes, character believability, and genre conventions
- Honest reactions I tell you where I stopped caring, not just where I liked it
Genres: Sci-fi, thriller, mystery, and crossover/adjacent subgenres (techno-thriller, psychological thriller, cozy mystery, hard sci-fi, space opera).

FAQ
What's the difference between beta reading and editing?
Beta reading gives you reader-level reactions and big-picture feedback before you polish; editing fixes prose line by line. I focus on the former, with the editorial eye to back it up.
Do you do line edits too?
Not in this gig — if you want line editing, message me and we can discuss a separate scope.
What if my book mixes genres?
No problem — sci-fi thrillers, mystery-adjacent sci-fi, etc. are exactly my sweet spot.
