American Memoir Beta Reader Needed
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
My memoir currently runs just under 115,000 words and I’m ready for a fresh, U.S.-based perspective before moving on to final edits. Your mission is to read the entire manuscript and give candid, detailed feedback on its plot and overall structure. While light notes on other areas are welcome, the backbone of the story arc—pacing, cohesion between chapters, narrative flow, and whether each turning point lands as intended—is the priority.
The book is about my adventure through Israel searching for ancient biblical places where angelic stories happened, and hopefully meet an angel.
What I’d like back:
• A marked-up document (Word or Google Docs) with inline comments focused on plot and structural beats.
• A concise overview (1–2 pages) summarizing strengths, weak points, and any big-picture suggestions.
Feel free to flag anything else that jars you, but please keep most of your commentary anchored to how the story holds together from start to finish. If this sounds like your cup of coffee, I look forward to your insights.
