About This Gig
Looking for objective feedback on your writing? Uncertain about how well your story hangs together, or whether your characters are engaging and plausible? Send your work to me for feedback!
I will beta read your book, short story, or article and provide a detailed, constructive critique. My feedback will include commentary and analyses on structure, voice, reader engagement, language use, and anything else I find that may help you develop your work to its potential. If necessary, I'll provide a sample edit for spelling, grammar, or writing technique.
I have extensive qualifications both in fiction and non-fiction. I have a PhD in literature, my specialty being narratology - the study of narrative structure. I also have 18 years of experience working as a professional writer and editor for a policy research institute. Consequently I know what makes a text tick. Providing honest, unflinching analysis and feedback is part of my training and experience. Let me share this expertise with you, and help you reach your writing goals.
