Hello, my name Debbie. I am an American Indie author with 30 novels and 7 anthologies in print. I have novels in suspense, vampire fiction, time travel, science fiction, Christmas fantasy, women’s fiction, femme fatale, paranormal, and young adult adventures, all with romance in each. I recently jumped into poetry with two books of poetry (so far). Each of these books is available in eBook and print formats. Also familiar with the Chicago Manual of Style. (CMOS) I have also written eight children's picture books under the name of Nana Debbie. I also create and publish journals, sketchbooks, and notebooks for fun, and recently published an Affirmation /Notebook in print-on-demand format. I can beta-read your manuscript in a specified time, giving you an honest and detailed review of your manuscript. I am discreet and will never plagiarize. Experienced in beta reading, self-publishing, excellent written communication skills, strong attention to detail, familiarity with grammar, punctuation, and spelling rules, ability to work independently and meet deadlines, experienced in plots, inconsistencies, character buildup, typos, dialogue, settings, and the flow of a manuscript. I have beta read close to seventy-three novels, short stories, and fanfiction a year. I love to read and write my own stories as well. I have assisted five people in publishing nine books in eBook and print formats.

Genres I read include but are not limited to: Romance, Thriller/mystery, Paranormal, Horror, Fantasy, Erotica, LGBTQA and Sci/Fi.

Every manuscript has blind spots, not because it’s poorly written, but because writers are too close to their own work to experience it like a reader would. That’s where I come in. I provide beta reading, manuscript critique, and editorial support designed to show you exactly how your story reads from the outside: where it works, where it drags, and where readers start to lose interest. I don’t just tell you what I think. I show you how your manuscript behaves in the hands of a reader: where engagement rises, where momentum drops, and where clarity breaks down. WHAT I LOOK FOR IN YOUR MANUSCRIPT • Pacing: where the story slows, rushes, or loses momentum. • Character effectiveness: who feels real, and who feels underdeveloped. • Emotional impact: where scenes land and where they fall flat. • Story clarity: where confusion interrupts immersion. • Scene execution: what works, what doesn’t, and why. WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE - A detailed beta reader report or manuscript critique based on your needs - Clear, structured feedback on pacing, structure, character, and readability - Honest notes on strengths and weak points; no vague comments - Actionable revision guidance you can apply immediately - A clear breakdown of what to fix first for the strongest impact ⭐⭐⭐WHAT CLIENTS SAY: "Taofeekat delivered a thoughtful and engaging beta read with clear and honest feedback. She highlighted where attention shifted, where clarity could be improved, and what kept me invested. Her feedback was practical, easy to understand, and grounded in the reader experience." "Taofeekat paid attention to detail and gave me excellent feedback on the novel I was writing. Communication was prompt, and I would use her again." If your draft needs deeper development, I also provide: — Developmental Editing: structure, pacing, character arcs, and story flow — Manuscript Critique: in-depth analysis of weaknesses and clarity issues — Line Editing: sentence-level refinement for tone, rhythm, and readability — Copy Editing: grammar, consistency, and style (CMOS-based) — Proofreading: final polish before publication Each stage builds on the previous one, so you always know exactly where your manuscript stands and what it needs next. I Work Best With Writers Who: • Want honest, structured feedback (not vague encouragement) • Have a complete draft but feel something is “off” • Want to improve story flow, pacing, or emotional impact • Are preparing for self-publishing or submission • Value clarity, depth, and reader-focused critique GENRES I WORK WITH Fantasy, Romance, Thriller, Mystery, Horror, Literary Fiction, YA, Historical Fiction, Memoir, Narrative Nonfiction, Self-Help, Business, and Children’s Stories. Whether it’s a short story or a full manuscript, my goal is simple: help you see your book the way your readers will experience it: clearly, honestly, and without bias. If you’re ready, send your genre, word count, and what feels uncertain in your draft. I’ll tell you exactly what kind of editorial support will move your manuscript forward most effectively.

Currently Accepting: Beta reading, developmental editing, and proofreading jobs. Please note that if your manuscript hasn't been edited and "proofreading" turns into "editing," then I will charge extra for the job, or we'll part ways since the job wasn't as discussed. Currently on Hold: Ghostwriting. My skills begin by pulling ideas from the shadows of everyday life and creating realistic characters, ideas, and worlds. I am always up for the challenge. My interests lie in stories, novels, and the creation of an escape from the mundane. If you need help with developmental editing or beta reading to know how your novel lands, I could be your girl. I am an experienced novelist, beta reader, and (used to be) ghostwriter with the full-rounded potential to proofread anything you need. My areas of interest in the fictional world are cozy mysteries, all genres of romance, horror, science fiction, urban fantasy, slice-of-life, coming-of-age, paranormal, crime/thriller, and fairytale retellings. Communication is key to the success of your novel! Expect clarifying questions from me, respectful comments, honesty, and collaboration!

I'm an avid reader who is passionate about helping authors with their books. My go to genres are fantasy and romance (all sub genres) but I love just about any fiction genre. I'm very detail oriented and have a history of getting projects done in a timely manner. I strive to be honest in all my thoughts on books I am going through and doing a thorough job to find errors and corrections.

No AI used in my editing or writing. I’m Jen, and I’m the reader’s advocate. I’ve worked on close to 300 manuscripts and I still read 100–300 books a year across genre fiction, literary fiction, and nonfiction — not because I have to, but because I genuinely can’t stop. That means I know what’s actually getting published, what readers expect, and exactly where your story is likely to lose them before you waste another year revising in the wrong direction. I work primarily in genre fiction — science fiction, fantasy, romance, mysteries, thrillers, and historical. Whether you need honest developmental editing, line editing, or full ghostwriting support, I care whether your book actually reaches people. That means I’ll tell you the truth and give you practical, high-leverage solutions — not a demolition, but a focused toolkit with specific, usable options. What makes me different: I read on Kindle and dictate my reactions in real time. So you don’t just get a report or a draft — you get to see (or feel) how the story actually lands with readers, page by page. Authors regularly tell me this changes everything. I also tend to keep thinking about projects even after delivery — sometimes I’ll send a note days later because I couldn’t stop turning a plot problem over in my head. That’s just how I’m built. I offer a full range of services: Quick Kindle sample reads and first-chapter assessments Beta reads and manuscript assessments Developmental editing and line editing Full ghostwriting (from concept to finished manuscript) There’s an entry point wherever your project is right now, and credits carry forward on editing work. If you want someone who’ll tell you your book is perfect, I’m probably not your editor or ghostwriter. If you want someone who’ll tell you what’s actually not working, help you fix it efficiently, or write it with you — I’d love to work on your story. Member, Editorial Freelancers Association.
