Beta Reading
Regardless of how stellar your writing accomplishments are, another set of eyes on your work is almost always a good bet before publishing. While I'm a huge advocate of hiring a professional editor, some writers can't afford such services, aren't ready to take that step yet, or prefer to have their work read by beta readers in their pre-editorial process. That's where the work of a professional beta reader can come in. For more information about finding and working with beta readers, read Jody's article 6 Tips for Finding Your Perfect Beta Readers. Below are details about this service. For a price quote, email JTMorseWriter@gmail.com or contact us via our contacts page.
