I’ve also got gigs for proofreading and editing, if you need something a little more in depth. Hit me up on Fiverr or email me at theliteraryapothecary85@gmail.com.

Testimonials from Authors

Smart, thorough, nuanced, and very insightful feedback! Valuable advice and reactions with actionable critiques that will be so helpful for the rewriting process. Really appreciate this beta reader’s attention to detail and off-the-cuff reactions — thanks again so much! – kr8dragon

“This was the second time I used Kate’s beta reading services, and just like last time I was glad I hired her. She found the weakness in my novel and helped me decide on the best path to follow in order to improve it.” – Baptiste Pinson Wu

“Kate was super helpful with my fantasy manuscript, and her prices were more than reasonable. I was afraid we got off on the wrong foot because I focused on the word count of my manuscript and ignored the page count (this was totally on me). But Kate was a total professional anyway and did an excellent job both with my report and providing constructive notes.” – Scott Holmes

“Provided great feedback and comments” – RS Cobb

“Working with Kate was a true pleasure. She has a keen eye for what makes a story exciting and her notes helped me understand what worked in my manuscript. I highly recommend her services to anyone who wants a fresh view on their WIP.” – Baptiste Pinson Wu

“Kate gave the feedback I needed with my early draft and I really appreciated that she didn’t just tell me what I wanted to here. Her price point is amazing as well” – mightymacc23

“Kate C was very responsive and provided summary as well in-line feedbacks that was super helpful. Recommend!” – Shannon

“Kate brings a unique perspective to beta reading. As a prominent member of the booktube reviewing community, she has a practiced eye for what readers and, perhaps more importantly, reviewers are looking for in a manuscript. With that, she can help you turn your book into a more appealing package for both. Unlike other beta readers, you can get a sense for the kind of feedback and criticism she can offer by watching her channel! Kate’s help was invaluable to me, and I’m sure she’ll be of great benefit to other writers looking to improve their books.” – JCM Berne

“Kate provided helpful and encouraging feedback on my children’s picture book. She was friendly, quick to respond, and delivered in a flash. Pleasure working with you, Kate!” – Jomobenun

“Great work!” – tclsek
