About this Gig
Your manuscript deserves more than a reader who simply says, "I loved it." You need honest feedback that identifies weak scenes, pacing issues, plot holes, and characters that need more depth.
I provide professional alpha reading, beta reading, and manuscript critique for romance and fantasy authors. Whether you're still drafting or preparing to publish, I'll help you strengthen your story with detailed, reader-focused feedback.
For romance, I assess chemistry, emotional connection, romantic tension, dialogue, trope execution, intimate scenes, and whether your HEA or HFN feels earned. For fantasy, I examine worldbuilding, magic systems, plot consistency, character development, stakes, and pacing.
Genres include contemporary romance, dark romance, MM romance, LGBTQ+ romance, romantasy, enemies-to-lovers, and slow burn.
What you'll receive:
- Detailed feedback with chapter references.
- Plot, pacing, and character analysis.
- Honest strengths and weaknesses.
- Practical revision suggestions.
- An organized feedback report.
Let's make your story stronger and more engaging!
