About this Gig
***CONTACT ME FOR A CUSTOM OFFER***
Are you worried that your story might not be good enough? Then worry no more! I have been reading novels ever since I was 6 years old, and an author for years now with many stories written, one even published locally. Thus, I can help polish yours to make it the best version it can be.
As your beta reader and proofreader, you will get inline comments and a detailed reader report covering the following aspects:
- Plot holes and inconsistencies
- Characterization and character development
- Character motivations
- Story flow and personal enjoyment
- Inconsistent voices and out of character dialogues and actions
- Overarching themes
- Worldbuilding
- Basic proofreading(extra gig only: spelling and punctuation)
I will read the story thoroughly and with the same zeal as that of an avid fan, noting each of the aforementioned aspects and any other problems I see. As an author myself, I believe that our own works can only be improved through the eyes of another reader. And trust me, I know how it feels to doubt your own skills.
Fantasy and all sub-genres are preferred, but I can accept any genre as long as it is fiction. Hope to work with you soon!
