That’s exciting! Third draft done is huge! If you want, I can step in as a beta reader before or alongside professional edits. I focus on pacing, character arcs, and trimming where the story drags, so you get actionable feedback without slowing your schedule.

Btw, what’s your genre?

Totally get that. Those spaces can be hit or miss, and it’s hard to know who’s really reading.

If it helps, I do one-on-one beta reads: no servers, no noise, just clear, honest feedback on what works and what drags.

Yeah, that’s a totally normal thing to want. Most writers just want to know the story is landing.

If and when you want it, I do beta reads that focus on whether the book flows, where it drags, and what can be trimmed without hurting it. Just a clear, honest outside perspective.

That makes sense. Round two is still very much hands-on.

When you’re ready, I’m good at reading with fresh eyes and spotting where things drag or could be tightened without losing what makes the story yours. Even a partial read can help. No rush, just keep me in mind.

Oh! That’s great. I have sent a Dm!

I’m interested!

Are you still open to beta readers?

I’ll love to dive into your manuscript. What’s your word count? I just sent you a Dm.

Still open to beta readers? Sci fi is one of my alleys.

Do you need a professional beta on your book?

04.02.2026 03:43 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes! I’d love to dive into your story. What’s your area of focus?

Yippee! I have been working on this manuscript as a beta reader for like a month now, and I’m happy that I’m almost done. I can’t wait to see the outcome πŸ™‚

Oh! That’s great. I’d love to keep an eye out on your manuscript as a professional beta reader. When you’re ready you can reach out.

πŸ˜‚ Classic brain move: β€œWrite everything, edit nothing!” Sometimes you just gotta ride the wave.

No worries at all! You’ve got a lot of editing ahead before beta reading. I can definitely send over my link and references so you have them bookmarked for when the time comes. I’ll make sure it’s easy to check whenever you’re ready! Follow back so I can send the link.

Yep, that makes total sense πŸ˜… Hyperfocus loves new writing but hates editing or your day job. Even just 20–30 minutes a day of β€œmicro-editing” can keep the sci-fi moving without killing your fantasy flow.

Oh! That’s great. Do you need an extra pair of eyes on your manuscript?

29.01.2026 11:05 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

By the way, I actually work as a professional beta reader, so I’m really used to giving detailed feedback on story structure, pacing, and character development. I’d love to help if you ever want a second pair of eyes on your work.

29.01.2026 11:03 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

You’re juggling two amazing things: editing your sci-fi novel (need a title) and six chapters into a new fantasy story. Your brain’s basically in creative overdrive, ride the wave!
