Proven Success

Fantastic Beta Reader

Michael provided a beta read of my romantic comedy novel and his feedback was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted an honest opinion on how the male characters were reacting and he provided helpful, honest reactions to my story. His feedback helped me identify areas where it was working and other areas that could be improved. I honestly recommend Michael for any new author seeking honest feedback and wanting to improve their manuscript.

Supportive and Caring Host!

Michael is a very thorough interviewer and writer. He enjoys exploring social issues and challenging the thoughts and beliefs of his viewers. I feel that having such an open host that doesn’t shy away from taboo topics is a huge benefit because you can dig into the inspiration and foundation of many great novels.

 

Michael will do everything in his power to make you feel comfortable, welcomed, and supported throughout the interviewing process. He is there to help give you a chance to share your journey as a writer to his viewers and build you further as an author.

Rebecca Robinson

Highly Recommended Beta & Proofreader!

Michael helped me with beta reading my 81,000 word book and he did a phenomenal job! He was quick to catch any discrepancies, and his worksheet helped me understand the areas my book needed more work. I highly recommend Michael for beta reading and proofreading services. He has a knack of understanding what your audience needs and how to best capture their attention. He’s also an author himself so he really understands the process. I’m really glad I used Michael’s services for my book. It made me so confident as a debut author!
