About this Gig
Hello, writer! I'm Paula, a voracious reader and developmental editor here to make your beta reading experience smooth, insightful, and uplifting.
My goal is simple: to help your book shine at its brightest. I provide detailed, constructive feedback that highlights where your story can grow while celebrating what is already working beautifully.
This gig includes:
Color-coded inline comments throughout your manuscript:
- Reader's reactions (real-time thoughts and emotional responses).
- Questions and suggestions to clarify confusing areas or strengthen your narrative.
- Grammar and stylistic adjustments to elevate your writing.
- Memorable quotes that truly resonate.
A comprehensive reader's report:
- Character development and emotional depth.
- World-building complexity and consistency.
- Plot progression, pacing, and structure.
- Writing style, voice, and flow.
- Overall reader engagement and satisfaction.
If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to reach out. I'm always happy to chat and see if I'm the right fit for your story.

FAQ
Do you use AI for any parts of the beta reading?
Absolutely not. You are hiring a human beta reader, and that's what you are going to receive. Plus, I love beta reading, so I wouldn't let AI steal that joy from me.
Do you beta read non-fiction?
No.
Would you be open to read a book that is not 100% finished?
Yes, I would. I do not have any problem reading a book that is not finished. I think feedback is important at every stage.
Would you beta read a manuscript that's less than 25k?
Of course! I have beta read opening chapters and short stories. Contact me, so we can arrange the custom offer.
Would you beta read a book over 75k words?
Absolutely! I have done it before and now would be no problem. Please contact me, so we can work out the price and the delivery day together (the number of inline comments and pages on the report will remain as the ones in the premium package).
Do you only beta read in English?
I can also beta read in Spanish.
