About me
I help fiction authors improve their stories through professional beta reading, alpha reading, and manuscript critique. I provide honest, constructive feedback on plot, pacing, character development, dialogue, emotional impact, worldbuilding, and reader experience. I read all fiction genres, including romance, fantasy, romantasy, thriller, mystery, sci-fi, and young adult fiction. I analyze manuscripts from a reader’s perspective to highlight strengths, weaknesses, and improvements. I also support authors with developmental, structural, line, copy editing, proofreading, and in line comments.
