Warren R | 8 comments Hello Goodreads Community,

I've written a historical fiction novel (three full drafts complete).

I've had several alpha readers already, but need 1-2 dedicated Beta Readers (fee for service) who will read my current draft to provide constructive feedback. My goal is to review feedback to inform content edits then hire a Copy Editor and begin pursuing publication options.

If you like history, action/adventure, and a strong cast of characters, my story may interest you.

Fee structure to be discussed. Serious responses only, please.

Thank you,

Warren

I'm a beginning paid beta reader who specializes in nonfiction. My field of interest is mainly 20th-century history, but I've beta-read historical fiction novels of various time periods. Can I DM you the details?
