Honest and constructive beta reading of fiction and non-fiction

[Amanda]

Hello,
I’m Amanda. I’m a beta reader of non-fiction and fiction. I give honest, kind, and constructive feedback to help you refine your manuscript before you send it out into the world.

I’ve been published myself (psychology), so I understand how it feels to create a manuscript and share it with others. I have a good eye for detail and I’m a reliable person.

Genres I beta read:
Non-fiction: psychology, health, wellness
Fiction: literary, contemporary, dystopian, thriller, rom-com

If you’re looking for a fresh pair of eyes on your manuscript, I’d love to help!

My beta reading includes a close and thoughtful read; in-line comments in your manuscript; and a feedback report on overall impression, structure, consistency, plot, characters, dialogue, pacing, clarity, and so on. I can also answer specific questions you have.

"Thank you, Amanda, for the thoughtful, insightful comments that you made on the first 50 pages of my novel. Your comments gave me confidence that the characters and the narrative were working the way I wanted them to work, but also encouraged me to add more texture where that would help." (J.M.)
