Sobre este Serviço
PLEASE INBOX ME BEFORE SUBMITTING AN ORDER, AND WELL IN ADVANCE, AS I AM TYPICALLY BOOKED 1+ MONTH OUT.
Have marginalized characters in your story (I hope you do!)? Need someone to make sure your story is inclusive and not harmful? My name is Kayla, and as an author, avid literary and commercial reader and marginalized person of color, I can help make your story authentic and respectful of all types of people and communities.
As your Sensitivity Reader/Beta Reader, I will:
- Identify any problematic areas concerning the story and your marginalized characters and provide genuine, honest, and tough feedback.
- Identify tropes (ex: gay best friend, magical Negro) and harmful stereotypes and clichés (Black characters who love rap, White Savior scenes)
- Check that your marginalized characters and their experiences are fully fleshed out, nuanced and not one dimensional.
Areas I specialize in:
- Female/Women
- African American culture/Race in general
- LGBTQIA+ (Although stories that include Trans people are better beta-read by a Trans person)
- Southern/Rural AND City Lifestyle
- Christianity/Bible
- Corporate Culture (17 years experience and counting)
- Class (Poor/Working/Middle Class)
Idioma:
Inglês

Perguntas frequentes
PLEASE INBOX ME BEFORE SUBMITTING AN ORDER.
To tell me a little about your project and make sure I can perform the service before placing an order.
Do you accept works longer than 10k words?
YES! The majority of my orders are for full length novels. For works of more than 10k words, please inbox me with details about your project and I will send you a custom quote/order.
What genres do you accept? Do you read anything other than fiction novels?
I read all genres, including non-fiction, social media posts, screenplays, essays, personal statements, watch videos, etc. I do not accept stories that include rape or sexual assault. Must be in Microsoft Word format (includes in-line comments/edits and a overall summary).
Is general beta reading included in the Sensitivity Read?
YES! In addition to the sensitivity read, I will also provide general beta reader critique of your story, including feedback about plot, dialogue, scenes, character arcs, believability, Show vs. Tell, overuse of words, inconsistencies, etc.
What is your critique style?
Although this is not a proofread or a copy edit, my general style is to comment on whatever I see as I read. I may call to your attention some misspellings, but not all. I also may comment on sentence structure or basic literary devices/concerns like flashbacks, opening chapters In Media Res, etc.
Will this guarantee that my story is not offensive to marginalized communities?
No, a sensitivity read is NOT a guarantee against making a story-telling mistake involving marginalized communities. But it will point out any definite and potential areas of bias in your story. This is often tough feedback to receive, it is ultimately up to you to accept or reject the feedback.
Will you rewrite sections of my work that are problematic?
No, I will not rewrite your problematic areas. If I identify areas of concern regarding your story and marginalized communities, I will critique and give examples of how the story can improve, but the onus is on you to do the research and rework your story.

Kayla was thorough in her sensitivity read and covered all my areas of concern. She clearly, honestly and politely articulated areas of risk, whether dealt with well or needing to be looked at a second time. I would use her again and recommend her to others.

Kayla was just what I needed for a passage in my book about two men of color and their relationship in the late 1860’s. She was encouraging and brought up a minor clarity issue which was so welcome. Thanks again Kayla!
