Beta reading is a crucial step in the publication process. You need to know what readers think of your book before you publish the book yourself or send it to any potential publishers. Beta readers can help you uncover inconsistencies you’ve missed, let you know their true feelings about your characters, and so much more. To give your book the best chance possible, you’ll want to hire a professional beta reader (like me!) to address:
I’ve beta read over 30 titles just in the last few months and it was my job for over six years to evaluate manuscripts for the publication company I worked for. My expertise lies in young adult fiction (all genres) and adult romance. If you have a book that falls into either of those categories, I’d love to work with you!
You will receive:
A PDF editorial analysis of your work including what’s working in the book and what needs some improvement
Comments throughout the manuscript in track changes
If you have a beta reading questionnaire, worksheet, or any additional resources you’d like me to fill out, I am more than happy to do that as well.
