Acerca de este Servicio
Vetted Pro
Professional beta reading can be the difference between writing a good romance, ya, or fantasy novel, versus a fan-favorite page-turner. Your beta read includes:
- ️Beta development of your opening hook, identifying strengths, opportunities, and new ideas.
- ️In-depth audio notes on character, plot, pace, structure, tone, style, commercial viability, and specific story updates.
- Your #1 question answered: Does your romance, YA, or fantasy novel meet commercial standards, and what does it need to get there to catch the eye of romance publishers like Entangled or Bloom Books?
Writers describe this beta development process as electrifying and empowering. I encourage you to only invest in beta reading if you're ready to view your story through new eyes and implement meaningful changes to your manuscript.
️This gig is for novel-length fiction works and memoir. Non-fiction (self-help, etc.) isn't included, sorry! Please contact me if you have a custom request.

FAQ
How does beta reading romance, YA, or fantasy novels differ from other genres?
Each genre has its own special tropes and conventions. Developing a romance, YA, or fantasy book doesn't just mean crafting a fantastic story, but honoring the genre-specific elements readers love, and doing so in a fresh, innovative way.
Do you beta read novels other than romance, YA, and fantasy?
Yes. If you are writing fiction or memoir, you're also welcome to order this gig.
Do you edit non-fiction?
I specialize in narratives, or manuscripts that follow a story. Many projects I edit are non-fiction; particularly memoirs, or books based on true stories. Having said that, I don't edit-self help, textbooks, or other non-narrative works. Confused? Feel free to send me a message about your project.
Why does your beta reading cost more than others?
This gig is advertised as 'beta reading' because that's the term most writers are familiar with. However, a more accurate description would be editorial development. The process is more intensive, detailed, instructional, and solutions-based than standard beta reading.
What is a Pro Seller, versus regular Fiverr beta reader?
Fiverr Pro beta readers and editors are hand-vetted and verified by Fiverr. Each of us has a proven track record in publishing. With under 1% of applicants accepted, working with Pro editors can help ensure you receive the experience, professionalism, and support you deserve.
I already have a good story. Do I need a beta reader?
YES. Even multi-bestselling authors work with beta readers and developmental editors to reveal issues and opportunities they are too close to see. Plot holes, weak characters, flat moments; professional beta development will make a good book, a great one.
Do you beta read full length novels?
YES, in fact 90% of the work I do is with 50,000 to 150,000 word manuscripts. Simply send me a message with your word count and a sample of your opening chapters, and I'll be happy to provide a quote and timeline.
What files do you accept?
MS Word is best. I can also accept PDFs, and can convert a .pages file if needed. Thanks!
