About this Gig
*Please contact me for availability first to avoid order cancellations*
Do you have an Indian character in your story, or is your book set in India? Need someone to help ensure your portrayal is authentic, accurate, and culturally respectful?
I'll be your Indian sensitivity reader, reviewing your manuscript for cultural accuracy, harmful stereotypes, and misrepresentation related to Indian culture, traditions, race, gender, and sexuality. My goal is to help you write a story that's inclusive and nuanced without losing your creative intent.
What will you get?
- First impression, in-line feedback throughout the book to point out things that you may need to fix with helpful suggestions.
Disclaimer: Know that I can't speak for an entire community, and it's always good to have multiple opinions, specifically from groups of people you're trying to portray.
I also offer romance developmental editing and beta reading services. Visit my profile to explore those services.
If you're interested, contact me now! I look forward to working with you :)

FAQ
Will this guarantee that my story is not offensive to marginalized communities?
No, a sensitivity read is NOT a guarantee against making a story-telling mistake involving marginalized communities. But it will point out any definite and potential areas of bias in your story. This is often tough feedback to receive, it is ultimately up to you to accept or reject the feedback.
What format should I submit my manuscript in?
You can submit your document in MS Word.
What if I have a really long book?
That's no problem. I have read books with a word count of more than 200,000, so any length is absolutely fine with me. Just contact me for a custom quote and we'll figure something out that suits your budget!
Are you willing to sign an NDA?
Of course! I'd be more than happy to sign an NDA! (That said, even if you don't have an NDA prepared, confidentiality is always guaranteed!)

Ritika did an excellent job as my sensitivity reader and beta reader. She spotted several instances that weren't quite on the mark, allowing me to fix them before publication. I appreciated her commentary throughout my story. It will help me take my story to the next level.
