Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. Your report is so thorough and encouraging. I will write more on the weekend when I’m not so tired — a new school year has started here and I’m a teacher and my mind is already fried. - Vanessa R.

Thank you again for taking the time to look over my work. I never thought it would actually go somewhere so I'm beyond excited to have a stranger think it has potential for more.

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for your report. I sincerely appreciate your swiftness and all the great things you had to say about my manuscript. It was a true blessing to read your responses to the questions from the book; thank you for sharing those with me. I will forever be grateful that you gave me the original source of the quote, “We do not see things as they are; instead, we see them as we are.” I had it listed as anonymous, and the gal who did my citations insisted I change it; I am much happier to reference Talmud! I found your comments especially encouraging and will incorporate many of your suggestions. It has been a pleasure to collaborate with you. My most sincere thanks! - Tanya D.

- Benjamin G.

I've just been looking over the beta reader report and can't thank you enough. You identified so many issues I would never have found on my own. I agree with all your suggestions and am excited to go through another revision to improve the manuscript. Your report was much more insightful and detailed than I expected. I will be referring you to fellow writers looking for a good beta reader. Thanks again. Sincerely, Benjamin J. Gohs - Benjamin G.

I was clearly led to the right Irishman to beta read the book: what with a daughter with Iona in her name, a Jamaican connection and a knowledge of that part of Irish history, who better? I really appreciate all of the details that you replied with, it's very helpful. I mentioned that I have two endings and would love your opinion on them. I have attached a new file. This is actually the first ending. The one you read was the new alternate. This version begins at chapter 53. Thanks for doing this. I'm really curious to hear what your thoughts are. I am just beginning the agent query process..

- Tore H.

Thank you for your kind words. Actually, I had expected much harsher feedback, as I've mulled the sorry over in my mind after I sent it to you and come up with a number of scenes / ideas I felt were bad or even cringe worthy. Also, of the 6-7 friends I have asked to beta read, none seem to have bothered to read past page 30ish.

Thanks so much Declan. I’m going to make a few modifications now thanks to your suggestions. Great thanks so much!

As you say good writing is rewriting, and as I re-read the rest of the manuscript I am struck with how many glaring holes there are and how many (lots!) opportunities for improvement!

So, I think I will continue to work on it before I send the rest of it to you.

Thanks for the feedback. I felt my writing had improved, so its nice to know I am not delusional.

BTW, this is a completely new story, with the previous 2 manuscripts as only back story.

Thanks so much. It is a very well written, comprehensive report. I’m very impressed with the quality.

There are some helpful suggestions for improvement and the summary of characters and plot is spot on.

Thanks again for such an in-depth report, I know that was beyond the realm of a beta read, so I really appreciate it!

Thank you for another wonderful assessment. This is very helpful and I greatly appreciate your suggestions and compliments. Everything makes perfect sense. I'm working on the revisions now and I am very excited to complete the next draft. I was planning to start querying agents/publishers after that, but I was curious if you think feedback from beta-reading might be necessary/helpful before moving forward. Thanks, Patrick.

- Rebecca A.

Thank you very much for your work. It is clear to me you have read the manuscript thoroughly and I appreciate your direct feedback. I already feel excited about the potential for improvement you have outlined that I wasn't able to see on my own. What's more, I've also seen clear evidence that I made the right decision in deciding to get a manuscript assessment from your detailed comments alone. This is exactly what I needed. Thank you again.
