I am a reader and writer that loves getting lost in new stories! If you are looking for a Beta Reader that can offer insight into your characters or plot - I'm your girl! I'm a fast, passionate reader that has lots to say about the books I read.
When I write, I love to watch the characters develop and guide me through their stories. I especially love writing dramatic arguments that lead to the characters reconnecting. If you're looking for a romance author, I would be thrilled to put some witty, dynamic characters on paper for you.
- I will beta read romance, contemporary fiction, and fantasy novels.
- I can provide my thoughts on your entire story, and/or thoughts on specific sections of your story.
- I can write trope driven romance novels with any specific requirements.

Writing has been a lifelong passion of mine, and over the past decade, I've dedicated myself to honing my craft as a fiction writer. I'm now channeling that experience into freelance opportunities in ghostwriting, beta reading, and manuscript critique.
I bring a reader's instinct and a writer's eye to every project. Whether that means helping an author identify pacing issues and plot holes, or capturing a client's unique voice in a ghostwritten piece. I understand story structure, character development, and what keeps readers invested. I specialize in writing fantasy, romance, and survival/horror themes, but open to exploring other genres.
I'm passionate about helping others bring their ideas to life, and I approach every project with dedication, open communication, and a genuine love for the art of writing.

Are you looking for positive and constructive feedback from a beta reader? Line editing to enhance and refine your voice? Proofreading to catch those last, elusive typos, missing quotation marks, and spelling errors?
I love helping writers polish their prose and making sure their unique writing voice shines through. I have a passion for adult and YA fantasy, science fiction, thriller/horror, and romance of any kind. I have experience as an author in both Indie and traditional publishing and am happy to guide others through the process of writing and publishing. In my editing, I give feedback from a reader’s perspective as well as editorial suggestions.
Currently, I provide the following services:
• Line Editing
• Copy editing
• Proofreading
• Beta Reading
• Ghost Writing (if you have a solid outline)
While new to freelancing, I have 10 years of experience as a professional editor and proofreader, with a diverse background in fiction as well as non-fiction. I hold a BA in Studio Art, a minor in English, with additional study in the fields of photography, theater, and art education. I’m a lifetime learner, adding to my knowledge every year. To keep my skills sharp, I am currently working toward a certification in writing and editing from the University of Michigan.
ABOUT ME:
I’m a bit book crazy; you’ll find overflowing bookcases in all the rooms of my house except the bathroom. I’ve worked a wide variety of jobs: retail manager, display manager, library circulation and technical services clerk, rhythm guitar player, graphic designer, and assistant tai-chi instructor to name a few. Gardening is one of my hobbies, another is jewelry making. I have one cat named Pippin, who often gets into more mischief than the hobbit from Lord of the Rings.

Reading has been my chosen companion for quite a long time. A bit of an upgrade to it, I've now been an advance reader for several books and also have multiple beta reading experiences. As a seasoned beta reader now, I specialize in providing the kind of honest, detailed, and constructive feedback that turns a good manuscript into a great one. I offer a fresh perspective from a professional reader's point of view, which eventually helps identify and resolve issues before a manuscript ever reaches an agent or publisher.
While I am fluent in multiple languages including Marathi, Hindi, and English, I have also picked up Korean through my K-Drama binge watching. Learning the basics of the language online by myself, I can now read and understand Korean at a fairly intermediate level.

As a published author and top rated plus freelancer, I have over ten years of experience in editing, from basic proofreading and copy editing to deep line edits and developmental commentary.
I have written ten novels across a wide range of genres, multiple screenplays, and am currently the lead writer for a dark fantasy comic. Readers consistently praise my writing for the nuanced, realistic characters, quick dialogue, and exciting action, all of which I bring to my line editing projects. Line editing is my passion, although I am available for creative writing when it comes to screenplays and video games.

I've spent the last decade meticulously combing through novels for clues about character motivations and potential plot holes. I have worked with writers who want chapter by chapter developmental advice, writers who want a quick read through and general review, and everything in between. I specialize in the fantasy, romance and horror genres, but I welcome any novel that catches my attention.
