About this Gig

***I welcome manuscripts over 100k words, just message me!***


Editor, writer, and educator for over 20 years!

 

I've given feedback on over 1,000 research papers and creative writing projects over the past 20 years. 

 

I am certified by the College Board to teach AP English Language and Composition and have designed and taught my own Honors Creative Writing class for years. 

 

I will professionally beta-read your work and provide in-depth, thoughtful, and constructive feedback.

 

Use my experienced eye to analyze and critique your short story, novella, or full-length novel. To make your story the best it can be, I will evaluate setting, character, plot, conflict, theme, grammar, and writing style.

 

All genres welcome!

 

This gig offers:

  • Professional beta reading (I read the complete manuscript slowly and carefully!)
  • 3-15-page Reader Report (varies from text to text) with reflections and analysis.


Reader Report includes analyses of:

  • Setting/Worldbuilding
  • Characterization
  • Conflict
  • Theme
  • Plot structure
  • Writing mechanics
  • Writing style
  • (appropriately modified for non-fiction)

    Stop. Stop reading other reviews and simply add Jonathan to your list. His reader report was 6k words of concise, thought-provoking, usable ideas. I know some readers may provide longer reports - but those just repeat the same content under different headings. If you are writing a memoir and want one of the best on FIVERR, hire him.

His chapter references and direct...

    Johnathan truly went above and beyond my expectations in literally every way! The quality and depth of review he delivered, and in the short amount of time he did it *in*, was exceptional. He gave me pointers and listed critiques, as well as positive insights, that I never would have noticed! If you...

    Just exceptional, all around. Clearly read the novel, understood it, and offered exceptional feedback organised by character, plot, theme, and setting, along with actionable observations of what worked for him and what drew him out of the story. Jonathan is the beta reader you want: honest, on time, and insightful.

    Jonathan delivered exactly what I was hoping for in a beta reader: an intelligent, highly specific assessment that demonstrated genuine engagement with the manuscript. He noticed important details and recurring patterns that several other readers had missed, and he supported his observations with precise...
