I will combo beta read and developmental edit of your novel with tough honest feedback

I've been writing all my life, and specialize in identifying what works in a novel, at the story level. Now I offer my skills to you. My preferred genres are: women's fiction, historical fiction, contemporary fiction, literary fiction, and anything young adult. I am NOT best for fantasy or science fiction.

What you get:

1. Thorough in-line comments - I will provide you with real time comments about what I was thinking as I was going through your book. Did I understand something instantly, or did a scene leave me confused? Did I feel your character had voice that sprang out of the pages or was I unsure of just who they were? Did a dialogue or scene fit together well, or did it feel like it was being forced for the sake of the plot? All of these and more are important reactions for an author to know.
2. Readers report - I will provide a reader's report to you that includes my thoughts on: Title, Beginning, Style, Characters, Dialogue, Plot, Genre Fit, Technical problems, Strong Points, and What Needs Work. This will help you make your novel the best it can be.
