About this Gig

Receive a 2-page reader report, and in-the-moment reader reflections within the manuscript. Constructive, honest, and actionable feedback on your Children's Fiction: Chapter Book, Middle Grade Novel, or YA.


I will actively beta read your manuscript and leave in-document comments of my first impressions and questions. If something makes me laugh, I will note it. If a beautiful bit of prose makes me sigh, I will let you know. Likewise, if something confuses me, if the timeline seems off, or if your protagonist's actions and dialogue aren't consistent with what you have established, I will comment. I may point out light issues with grammar/spelling as I notice them but consider this an extra if it happens.


In the detailed 2-page reader report, I will address the following:

·        Positive Aspects

·        Character Development

·        Dialogue

·        Voice

·        World Building/Setting

·        Plot, Pacing, & Structure

·        Overall Impression

·        Specific Concerns of the Author (as asked for when you hire me)


I am willing to complete a sample beta read of your first page. Please contact me.


Thank you. And happy writing.

    Jennifer was recommended by several of my critique partners, and I'm so happy I engaged her for a beta read of my middle-grade novel. She was thorough, and her suggestions were extremely helpful. Professional, punctual, and a delight to work with. I highly recommend her and will send future novels her way.
