I do not use AI for my critique service. All feedback is human and personal.

Deliver a Story Your Readers Can't Put Down

Get feedback designed around one principle: making sure your reader enjoys every page.
Entertainment first.
We can figure out where the commas go later.

Here's how we work together:

Is This For You?

You're in the right place if:

  • You've finished a draft but aren't sure if the story actually works
  • You're stuck and need direction for your next revision
  • Your draft is complete but needs expert diagnosis on what's working and what could be improved
  • You need deep structural analysis before hitting the publish button
  • You have a world, characters, and a vision but can't translate it into a working draft
  • You're drowning in outlines and notes and need someone to synthesize it into structure you can follow


This isn't for you if:

  • Your manuscript isn't readable yet (I need to follow the story, not decode it)
  • You're looking for line editing, grammar fixes, or copyediting (I diagnose story problems, not sentence problems)
  • You want someone to fix your book for you (I show you what's broken and how to fix it, but you do the work)
  • You're not ready for honest feedback (I tell you what's not working and what you can do better, and that might sting)

Your manuscript should be readable: clear grammar and sentence structure. I don't expect perfection, just a draft polished enough to follow. If you're still on a 'vomit draft,' take another pass to clean it up so your book feels finished, complete, and ready to stand on its own.

Genres I Work With

I work with Middle Grade, YA, New Adult, and Adult fiction across the following genres:

Genre Examples
Dystopian/Post-Apocalyptic/Alternate World Hunger Games, Divergent, World War Z
Mystery/Thriller/Crime/Detective/Suspense Gone Girl, One of Us Is Lying, We Were Liars
Concept-First Sci-Fi Dune, 1984, Mickey 17
Adventure & Coming-of-Age Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, The Chronicles of Narnia
Animal Fiction Watership Down, Animal Farm, Warrior Cats, Redwall
Fantasy Game of Thrones, The Lord of the Rings, Mistborn
Contemporary Fiction The Fault in Our Stars, Little Women, Looking for Alaska
Horror Frankenstein, Dracula, The Shining

A note on romance: I enjoy romance as a subplot, not as a standalone title.

I don't work with: Hard erotica or erotica as a primary genre.

Not seeing your genre? Email me - I might still be a good fit.

Sounds Too Good To Be?

With everyone on the internet trying to make a quick buck off the next person, why should you trust me?

I get it. You've probably seen:

  • Services on Fiverr that promise professional feedback but end up delivering an AI written report
  • Feedback so vague it could apply to any manuscript ("the pacing needs work," "the characters need depth")
  • Beta readers who disappeared after you sent your manuscript

You're wondering: Is this another waste of time and money?

Here's why this is different:

  • 1. You see my work before paying anything.
    Send me your trickiest chapter/scene (up to 2,000 words). If my feedback doesn't click with you, you got free insight and lost nothing.
  • 2. You see sample reports from real clients.
    Download them. Read them. See exactly what level of analysis you're getting.
  • 3. All my early clients came back for more.
    Either for Revision Reads or their next manuscript. That doesn't happen if the feedback doesn't deliver.

What Authors Are Saying

"She found every flaw I didn’t see - from character inconsistencies to plot holes - and my work is so much better for it."

"It was like giving me a lantern to light a dark path. Now I know where to go next and why I'm going there."

"I was stuck on plot and pacing issues for months. After her critique, I could see exactly what was working and what was not. Absolutely invaluable!"

How It Works

1

Free Sample (No Strings Attached)

Send me the chapter you're most worried about. Include a few sentences of context (what happens before/after this chapter) so I understand where it fits in your story.

I'll analyze it completely free. You'll get a good sense of how I work. Within 48 hours, you'll know if we're a good fit.

2

We Connect

If we're both ready to move forward, we'll finalize a simple contract covering timelines, deliverables, confidentiality, and payment.

Everything is transparent and straightforward.

Payment is via PayPal Xoom or Western Union.

3

Share Your Manuscript

Send me your full manuscript via Google Docs or Word. If you have specific questions or concerns about your story, include those too and I'll address them in your report.

4

Get Your Feedback (Service-Dependent)

Feedback format, depth, timelines, and any follow-up options depend on the service you choose. Full details are outlined on each service page.

LET'S GET YOU QUOTED!

Send me a message and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
