I will beta read and sensitivity read your story
About this Gig
I'm most familiar with fantasy, sci-fi, YA, and short stories! However, I'll happily read scripts of any genre and writing style.
- Please contact me before ordering, to ensure I can deliver! :)
- Timeline will depend on draft length.
What you'll get with this gig:
General Feedback
- Thoughts on the pacing and believability of the narrative
- Comments on any plotholes
- Suggested improvements
Copy & line edit
- Spelling, grammar, syntax, sentence flow
- Fix errors in dialogue and POV
- Edit wording to reduce redundancy and fluff
Sensitivity reading
- Point out stereotypes/cliches
- Ensure that your marginalized characters are fully fleshed out
- Identify problematic scenes
- Areas I know the most about:
Female experience (avoid misogynistic undertones!)
Asian-American experience (model minority myth, microaggressions)
Growing up in East Asia (culture check)
Socioeconomic privilege (perceived social value, can be culture-specific)
Acculturation (acclimating to a different country)
*NOTE: I can comment on other sensitivity topics and do my research, but if you have a specific experience/identity in mind, feedback from someone of that community/identity would be the best bet!
*PRICING: Priced per word
Language:
English
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

Zoie was great! Very nice and enthusiastic about the content. The notes were fairly succinct, but covered the big points I was concerned about. They might not be a good fit for people who want frequent updates. Not to say I didn't get responses to my questions -- I did! Just infrequent (I'm hands-off, so I didn't mind)! I would work with Zoie again :)

I hired Zo to do a beta read for specific details in my book that are in her background. I got exactly what I was hoping for with suggestions to improve my MS.

I needed a sensitivity reader for elements of my book and Zo perfect. Very easy to work with and quick to respond with very insightful comments and thoughts about my work that I will certainly think about and incorporate into my novel.
