About this Gig
Are you looking for a fresh set of objective eyes to look at your manuscript? Do you need feedback to find out what's working, what isn't, and how to improve your writing? Look no further.

I am an editor and fellow writer with a passion for fiction. I want to help you bring out the best in your stories and yourself. All my feedback will be constructive, offering potential solutions to any problems I might find. From both a writer's and a reader's perspective, I will give feedback on:
  • How hooking your first chapter is
  • How engaging your writing is
  • How realistic your dialogue is
  • How confusing your story is (if at all)
  • How well the story flows
  • How readable the story is
  • How realistic the characters are
  • How visual the world is

You will receive a document that's at least 1,000 words of pure feedback. I hope I can help you make the best out of your manuscript!

Please message me before placing an order so we can work it all out. I'm looking forward to working with you!
- Jane Barnaby

    I appreciated how the seller offers two types of critique - one where she can be 100% frank and another which calls for more sensitivity. From the outset this marked Jane as a reliable reader. I chose the first option and was pleased to receive a thorough - honest and fair - critique of my work. Order...
