My beta reading service offers an honest, reader-focused review of your manuscript before publication. I approach your work from the perspective of your target audience, providing clear and constructive feedback on how your story or content connects, flows, and engages. Unlike editing, which focuses on grammar and technical details, my goal is to assess the overall reading experience—how the plot unfolds, whether the pacing feels natural, if the characters are believable, and if the tone and structure keep readers invested from start to finish.
As I read, I note what captures my attention and what might feel confusing, slow, or inconsistent. I highlight moments that could use more clarity, depth, or emotional impact, and I point out any gaps in logic or parts that might pull readers out of the story. For nonfiction projects, I focus on how clearly your ideas are presented, how well the information flows, and whether your message reaches the reader effectively.
My feedback is detailed, honest, and supportive. I provide a report that outlines your manuscript’s strengths and areas for improvement, along with specific suggestions to help you refine your work. This process gives you a genuine reader’s perspective before moving on to editing or publishing, helping you see how your book will likely resonate with your intended audience and ensuring it delivers the best possible reading experience.
