Über diesen Service
What if you could know how readers may experience your story before you publish it?
Hi, I'm Austin, an experienced book editor and avid reader, but when I beta read, I put my editors hat aside and focus on the reading experience.
I read your manuscript as a genuine reader would, paying attention to what pulls me in, where my interest drops, what confuses me, and which moments create a strong emotional response.
My beta reading is honest, sensitive, and constructive, designed to help you strengthen your story without rewriting your voice.
You'll receive:
- Detailed reader feedback letter
- In-line comments and reactions
- Plot, pacing, character & relationship feedback
- World building and story-logic observations
- Emotional impact and reader-engagement insights
- Actionable suggestions for revision
I welcome speculative fiction, fantasy, romance, dark romance, sci-fi, YA, LGBTQ+ fiction, and genre-blending novels.
For sensitive or emotionally difficult stories, I'll approach your work with care, respect, and honesty while still giving you useful feedback.
You wrote the story. I'll help you see how it feels through a readers eyes.

FAQ
What is beta reading and how is it different from editing?
Beta reading focuses on the reader’s experience, not grammar correction. I read your novel or manuscript as your target audience would and provide detailed feedback on pacing, characters, emotional impact, clarity, and overall story flow. Unlike copy editing or proofreading, beta reading highlights
What exactly is included in your beta reader report?
You will receive a detailed, personalized feedback letter focusing on pacing, character development, plot holes, and emotional impact. I also provide in-line comments throughout your manuscript so you can see my real-time reader reactions. I do not use AI or robotic checklists, you get 100% human
How does your background as a copy editor help with beta reading?
My editing background means I have a highly trained eye for story structure, flow, and clarity. However, when I beta read your manuscript, I turn off my "editor brain" and read purely as a fan. You get the ultimate benefit: a trained professional giving you raw, authentic reader reactions.
Which genres do you specialize in beta reading?
I am an avid reader of Fantasy, Dark Romance, Erotica, Sci-Fi, YA, and LGBTQ+ stories. I offer a sensitive, judgment-free approach, meaning I can handle dark, steamy, or complex themes with an open mind and provide feedback tailored exactly to your target audience.
Is my manuscript safe and confidential with you?
Absolutely. As a professional, I deeply respect your hard work and intellectual property. Your manuscript will never be shared, distributed, or used for any other purpose. Your ideas remain 100% yours, and your privacy is fully protected.
Do you beta read books that have been translated into English?
Yes! If you are a German author (or from any other background) who has translated your book into English, I can be a massive help. I will read your manuscript to ensure the dialogue, cultural nuances, and pacing feel completely natural and engaging for a native English-speaking audience.
Will your feedback be overly critical or harsh?
Never. My goal as your beta reader is to help your book succeed, not to tear it down. I provide sensitive, constructive feedback. While I will always be honest about plot holes or pacing issues, I also highlight what you did wonderfully and offer actionable suggestions on how to fix the weaker spots
What file formats do you accept for the manuscript?
I prefer Microsoft Word (.doc / .docx) or Google Docs, as these allow me to easily leave those real-time, in-line reader reactions as I go. If you only have a PDF or another format, please send me a quick message first so we can work it out!
