    Amy was extremely respectful, extremely constructive, and always available during business hours, extremely responsive and basically went straight to work on the beta read almost immediately. Usually beta readers give you this 5 week timeline for a large manuscript(110k words) but she just attacked it...

    Amy worked with me on a tight deadline for a query letter and the first 50 pages of a manuscript draft. I was able to send her the link for the specific query requirements and she tailored her review to that. I am extremely impressed with the feedback that she provided, most especially on developmental analysis and making my query letter more high stakes.

    Fantastic experience. It's always good to have a set of eyes on a story you've worked on for a while. As a writer, it's easy to get lost in a story and have everything make sense to you, but it's also about how the reader will respond. Amy was fantastic in her suggestions and caught some things I think...
