About this Gig

I understand how daunting it can be to release your writing into the world, you need a reliable and trustworthy beta reader to give genuine and constructive feedback on your work. Look no further, I will be your perfect beta reader.


Hi, I'm Alicia, a native English speaker from the UK with a degree in English Literature and Creative Writing. During my degree I was constantly reading and critiquing the writing of my peers and therefore I gained extensive experience in providing valuable feedback. I'm an avid reader and I enjoy reading all genres including fiction, non fiction, poetry and essays.


My experience beta reading extends from 180,000 word novels to 2,500 word blog posts. I provide authors with genuine and constructive feedback to help make their writing the best that it can be. You will receive a detailed report containing constructive notes that discuss your project as a whole as well as diving into details such as plot inconsistencies and character development.


I look forward to working with you to help you reach your writing goals.

    Alicia provided concrete recommendations that will help me improve my book's accessibility. I appreciate that she reached out part way through her review to let me know that she was on track to complete her work within the agreed upon time frame. Her review gave me valuable insight into reader reactions.

    Receiving Alicia's feedback was like being led to an oasis after years of wandering alone through a desert. Her insights are thoughtful, and both the positives and the negatives are equally helpful. Her in-line comments are especially useful. I'm seeing my writing in a new light. Great value for money.
