You will get an enthusiastic beta reader for your book!

Project details
As an author and ghostwriter, I know how helpful a great beta reader is. For authors (and aspiring authors), I'm happy to fill that role and offer enthusiastic reading and helpful critiques. I have a decade of editing experience. In that time, I have also written and published my own books and I have ghostwritten multiple books for successful public figures. I know what it takes to write a book, and I'm just as familiar with what it takes to polish that very same manuscript. As your beta reader, I will be reading your manuscript through that lens--while also enjoying it and cheering you on the whole way!
If you want a supportive and encouraging beta reader with extensive writing and editing experience, I'm happy to be of help.
I look forward to working with you!
