I will be your beta reader and provide a detailed critique
About this Gig
Looking for a beta reader with a background? in literature? With my experience as a beta reader I am here to offer constructive, and actionable feedback with a focus to help you identify what works, what drags, and what keeps a reader turning pages.
What I focus on during my read:
- Pacing & Story Structure: Are there sections that feel slow, boring, or rushed?
- Character Arcs: Are your characters realistic, relatable, and driven by clear motivations?
- Plot Consistency: Are there any glaring plot holes, logical errors, or confusing sequences?
- World-Building & Dialogue: Does the dialogue sound natural? Is your setting immersive?
What you will receive:
- In-Line Commentary: Direct reactions, highlights, and thoughts left inside your Microsoft Word document using Track Changes.
- A Detailed Reader Report: A structured breakdown covering my overall impressions, plot evaluation, character analysis, and final conclusions.
Note: This is a beta reading service to assess story elements, not a professional proofreading or grammar editing service.

FAQ
Will you fix my spelling and grammar?
No, beta reading focuses entirely on story elements, plot, character progression, and pacing. I will point out occasional repetitive errors, but full grammar correction requires a copyeditor. I can recommend a great one!
Can I send you a specific list of questions to answer?
Yes, please do! If you are worried about a specific character arc or a certain chapter plot twist, let me know ahead of time so I can pay extra attention to it.
