I will beta read your science fiction and fantasy work

If the word count of your piece lies somewhere between the word count bands, send me a message with the exact word count, and I'll reply with a Custom Offer to save you money.

Absolutely. Provide me with the exact word count and I’ll be pleased to provide a Custom Offer.

I can work with either a Word or PDF file. Unfortunately, I’m unable to work with cloud-sharing platforms such as Google Docs.

This is not necessary at all.

Unfortunately, I don’t accept chapters delivered one at a time. I find that, in order to provide the best feedback, I require the entirety of the work to properly appreciate the piece, and to be able to provide a full and comprehensive assessment.

Unfortunately not. Once I have started reading your work, I’m committed to providing discerning feedback on the work in hand. After I provide you with the reader report, you can always revise your manuscript, and I’ll be pleased to re-read it as a new order.

I’d be delighted to. I fully understand that works in progress go through multiple rounds of revisions. I’m happy to receive a new order to re-review a revised piece I’ve previously read.

My Beta Reader Reports vary in length depending on the complexity of the work and how much support I need to provide. As a minimum, my Beta Reader reports are 4+ pages. Each report will also provide examples of good writing for your genre, applied to the specifics of your writing material.

I do not use AI in any way. I am the only person reading your work and writing the reader report. My expertise and experience is what you are paying for. And that is what you will get!

Depending on the length of your work, I will aim to read your piece in one (or more) sittings over consecutive days, compiling comments and reactions as I go. After reading, I spend several hours reviewing my comments and preparing the reader report. I usually work on one project at a time.
