Hello!
I'm Audris, a Chinese-Indonesian author and editor. I'm an alumnus of the distinguished and inclusive Tessera Editorial Mentorship Programme. I'm here to help polish your book to the best it can be, and while I'll read just about anything, I specialize in Fantasy and Horror.
SENSITIVITY READING
$0.007 - $0.01/word
What is sensitivity reading?Sensitivity reading or authenticity reading is a type of editing where a person from a marginalized group will check whether or not your manuscript has done its utmost best in being inclusive and emphatetic towards said identity.Price depends on how heavy and pervasive the topic is, and it is negotioable. Lower budget will only provide you with a letter, while a higher budget will include in-document comments and a letter.
Identities I can read for:
Asian & Diaspora experience (Chinese & Indonesian)
Queer, BDSM, Polyamory
Mental Health / Mental Illness (child abuse, sexual assault, depression, anxiety, PTSD)
Disability (chronic pain/migraine)
Buddhism & inclusive witchcraft
Fatphobia
