Need a Beta Reader?


Are you looking for a beta reader?

I offer honest, reader-focused beta feedback for fiction writers who want to know how their story lands. I’m not here to edit your grammar or rewrite your scenes. I’ll tell you what made sense and what didn’t, what felt real and what felt off. My feedback includes in-line comments, a written report, and one follow-up email. I only take on stories I feel connected to so I can give them my full attention. If I’m not the right reader for your book, I’ll let you know.

First Chapter

(up to 5,000 words)

Partial Manuscript

(up to 40,000 words)

Full Manuscript

(up to 90,000 words)

Need more words or want to talk it through?
Additional rates apply for manuscripts over the listed word count or for booking a 30-minute follow-up call after feedback is delivered. If you're interested, just mention it when you reach out and I’ll send options.

I help authors sharpen their stories through clear, reader-first feedback—and I’m building one of my own along the way. Every week, I share what I’m learning: insights from beta reading, hard-earned lessons from my own draft, and honest reflections on what makes a story work. Whether you're a writer or a curious reader, there's something here for you.
