You will get expert Beta Reading and Feedback for Your Romance Novel


Project details
You get initial and inexpensive feedback on your first chapters to make sure you are on the right track. Beta reading includes an overview of your story and my impressions as a reader. Additionally, I make in line suggestions and comments so you can see which parts of your story are working and which areas may need improving. I comment on a wide range of narrative features such as: character development, dialogue, romantic tropes, clarity of writing, emotional impact, and how engaging the story is.
I am an experienced writer and editor with over 17 years in the industry. I've worked with clients writing in a variety of genres, from children's fiction to sci-fi. Romance is my special interest area. (High heat is okay, but no erotica please).

My Background:
Writing
I have been in the writing industry for over 16 years as a regular freelance writer for magazines, newspapers, and online. My writing has won several awards, including a nationwide award with the New Zealand Society of Authors. I coach/mentor writers and work with international clients.
Editing
I have completed 5 years of University Education gaining a Bachelor of Education, Postgraduate Diploma in Teaching, and Postgraduate Diploma in Health Science with Distinction which enables me to edit to a high standard. I enjoy proofreading and helping others to present their ideas in a clear way.
Vocal Acting
I have my own sound proof recording studio and vocal booth with professional recording equipment and microphones. My recordings are clean and clear. I have a New Zealand accent with clear pronunciation of words and have assisted with projects for international language schools, YouTube voice-overs and songs, and children's audiobooks.
I would love the opportunity to assist with your project.
