About this Gig

Did you just finish a draft of your work and need an extra pair of eyes on it?


As your beta reader I will provide a detailed readers report after each chapter and give feedback on character acts, plot arcs, emotional or spicy scenes, and give suggested improvements and opinions. I will also provide a 2-3 page reader report answering questions centered around these categories:


Was your first chapter gripping enough to hold a reader's?

How was the character development?

What were some of my favorite parts?

Was anything confusing or inconsistent?

How was the plot structure/ and overall readability?

Was the pacing of scenes and chapters right?

Was the dialogue natural?

Was the ending worth reading the whole book?


I have been an avid reader my whole life. So, I know what makes a reader immerse themselves in a text and can use that knowledge to help you develop your work, whether it's a fictional or a nonfiction narrative.
