Hello, everyone! I am Danita Mayer, freelance book editor and occasional beta reader. I have a couple of openings right now to take on new projects for fiction manuscripts, memoirs, or creative non-fiction manuscripts. I also do short story critiques and outline critiques. Email: Danita.Mayer@gmail.com
Between now and the end of January, I am upgrading all beta read projects to a full manuscript evaluation for $0.002 per word (for ex. $100 for 50K or $200 for 100K novels).
This is an in-depth analysis from an editor’s perspective. I go into detail on all of the areas listed below and much more. This edit includes a detailed report (usually around 9-15 pages) covering the main aspects of the story listed below, PLUS I include detailed Track Change comments throughout the entire manuscript to help you see exactly what’s working and what’s not. Included: • Voice, tone, style • Story arc and pacing • Character development • Inconsistencies or confusing parts • Point of view • Setting or Worldbuilding • Dialogue You will receive: • A detailed editorial letter discussing the strengths and weaknesses of the manuscript • Track Change comments throughout the manuscript • Advice on how to improve the manuscript • A customized response to questions you might have
I will read your work honestly but kindly, and I always try to give positive feedback designed to help your work improve and grow. I discuss what is working in your novel, as well as aspects that still need development.
The special beta read price covers novellas and full-length novels for adult, NA, YA, and MG books. I also offer short story critiques and right now I am offering an introductory critique rate of $25 if you book you short story between now and the end of January.
For manuscripts, I typically prefer .doc or .docx files so I can apply Track Change comments in Word. (I can also upload and download from Google Doc files for those that use other writing software, but I work offline and not directly in Google Docs). My preferred payment method is via Paypal. *I edit most subjects or genres, but please let me know beforehand about any sensitive or graphic content, if included in the manuscript so we can both decide if I will be a good fit for your project.*
To schedule your project, email me at Danita.Mayer@gmail.com
