About This GigSo you’ve finished a book? Congratulations! I know how tough it can be to find someone to beta read your story and offer you proper feedback that you can really use. How many times did you doubt that a beta reader went through your entire story? Or just received a few “it’s very good!” without actually getting the feedback on the story development, plot, or overall flow? That’s because most beta readers haven’t published books before. I am an award-nominated author with 4 novels and 7 short stories published on all major online retailers (Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes and Noble, Kobo…etc). You will get feedback on the following:  PlotCharactersHow the story is flowingWeaknesses and StrengthsAn overall score (showing how good the work is) I am mostly a fiction author, so naturally, I specialize in the following: Urban fantasyDark fantasyShort StoriesVampiresHorror and Thrillers For stories with more than 75,000 words, get in touch with me first.+ See MoreLanguageEnglish

About This GigI am a published writer and English teacher and will beta read your novel. I have a lot of experience with YA novels but will also happily work on literary fiction, middle grade, new adult, speculative fiction, thriller and mystery. I have had two novels published (YA and sci-fi) as well as short stories in various magazines and anthologies. Additionally, I am a contributing writer for award-winning online magazine The Wee Review (arts reviews). I have beta read for many authors in the past and have had my own work read by other beta readers, so understand the process and what is most helpful. In my beta reads I'll comment on: Technical accuracyAwkward sentence construction/passive voice/unclear expressionPaceCharacterisationPlotholes/continuity errors/plausibility I'll also provide an overall commentary on my thoughts, reactions, and key suggestions for redrafting.

I find it easiest to work on Microsoft Word and can either use the Track Changes or Comments functions or can type directly onto your document using a colour-coding system.+ See MoreGenreYoung AdultLanguageEnglish

Finding a good beta reader can be tough. As a published author of four romance novels, I can relate to that pain. My professional beta reading services will assist in improving your manuscript utilizing positive feedback and gentle honesty that will always maintain your unique author voice.   Beta readers are generally the first to critique your manuscript, to take your polished book “baby” and offer suggestions to make it shine even more. A good beta reader will offer constructive criticism and point out inconsistencies, plot holes, and other manuscript issues the author might have missed. When you collaborate with me, you will receive a constructive critique. I will provide comments via Track Changes within Microsoft Word. (If you do not have Microsoft Word, please contact me and we can discuss alternative methods.) You will also receive a separate detailed report, commenting on: Opening SceneCharacterization and MotivationPlot and ConflictPacingSetting and WorldbuildingDialogueCraftOverall ImpressionsPlease note that this is not a proofreading or copy editing gig, however I will point out any errors I notice while completing the beta read.

I will be your beta reader and more! It does not have to be a finished work! You can definitely just have me do the first few chapters. I can take on any genre, but fiction only please! I'm here to help you improve your writing and take your book up a notch! What is beta reading? Beta readers are like testers for your book! You will get feedback from an unbiased reader on how the story flows and what emotions are elicited. I will tell you exactly how I feel about the characters, the plot, the storyline, and so forth. I will tell you exactly what I love and hate from a reader's point of view. What separates me from others? I will go line-by-line to check for sentence structure and flow. I will help point out where sentences may seem awkward or confusing. I will provide in depth notes/suggestions on how to make your story read easier. I will lightly look for grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. Any basic typos or simple grammatical errors I will try my best to catch, but will not go too much in depth on it. If I have worked on your book before and you would like me to go over it again now that you've changed things, contact me for special pricing.
