I’ll consider beta reading the first three chapters (10,000 words max) of your manuscript free in return for an honest review one of my books.
I'm a journalist, facilitator of creative writing circles, a paid book reviewer and author of 12 novels, 2 plays, and a collection of short stories. I give constructive and specific suggestions on everything from story structure to characterization to plot development – doesn’t matter what genre.
Agents, publishers, and professional writers will tell you the first three chapters are more than enough to indicate what the rest of the book will be like. If issues are identified in those first chapters they can be address in the rest of the novel.
This is not a review, and my comments and suggestions will be sent directly to you and not posted anywhere else. It might be a good idea to do this before you solicit more reviews or self-publish.
If you’re interested, you can check me out at https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B003DS6LEU and then contact me and we can sort out the details. rod_raglin@yahoo.com
