Gig Summary
Author, beta reader, and line and copy editor
About this Gig
Hi! I'm Jessica, dedicated beta reader/critique partner and author. My goal with this gig is to provide writers with in-depth feedback and critiques on their finished or unfinished manuscripts from both a reader's and writer's point of view. All of my feedback is constructive yet honest. However, you are the writer and are by no means required to take all of my feedback and suggestions as law.
I'm open to mostly all creative pieces. My personal preferences are sci-fi, dystopian, thrillers, horror, and historical fiction. If you are unsure that I'll be a fit for your project, feel free to message me!
With each package, I will add in-line comments of what I like, what I dislike, and suggested changes from comma placement to sentence reconstruction to enhance the flow of your story. I will also send you a document with my overall impression of the story as well as the characters, plot, and writing.
Thank you so much for checking out this gig, and I hope to read some of your beautiful works soon!

I'm very happy I sent the manuscript to Jess. Her critical insight was just what I needed to improve the story. The inline comments were also incredibly helpful. I wish I'd found her years ago. Thank you so very much!

It's hard to come across an experienced editor and/or beta reader that can really dissect a novel into its working parts and provide suggestions on what needs to be fixed. Jess is 10000 % one of those people. If you need eyes on your manuscript, def book!

Great work by a standout seller. It doesn’t get better than having a fellow writer comb through your story — especially one as insightful and meticulous as Jess. She’s offering an incredible value to aspiring authors here. Take advantage!
