Reviewing LGBTQ+ fiction

Are you an LGBTQ+ author looking for honest, constructive feedback on your work? As a fellow writer in the community, I know how important it is to receive thoughtful reviews that can help you grow and gain exposure. That’s why I want to try and help.

Why seek reviews?

Reviews play a crucial role in the success of any book, especially for independent authors. They provide valuable feedback, help potential readers discover your work, and lend credibility to your writing. By seeking out reviews from fellow LGBTQ+ writers and readers, you can gain insights into how your work resonates within the community and identify areas for growth and improvement.

I offer:

  1. Thoughtful, constructive feedback on your stories, novels, or other LGBTQ+ content
  2. Flexibility in review format and platform (my blog, your blog, or other agreed-upon locations)
  3. Support for works of any length, from short stories to full-length novels

I accept LGBTQ+ fiction in .pdf, .epub, or audiobook format, making it easy for you to submit your work for review.

Requesting a review is simple:

  1. Email me at arnoldjmilesauthor@gmail.com with your review request and a copy of your work in the appropriate format.
  2. Include details about your preferred review format and platform in your email.
  3. I’ll respond to confirm receipt and discuss a timeline for the review.
  4. Once we’ve agreed on the details, I’ll read and review your work, and we’ll coordinate the posting of the review.

While I’m open to reviewing a wide range of LGBTQ+ content, it’s important to note that my perspective is shaped by my identity as a white, gay, cis man based in the UK. I will always strive to provide honest and constructive feedback to the best of my ability.

By offering this review service, I hope to support and uplift LGBTQ+ voices in literature. As a community, we have so many important stories to tell, and by working together, we can help these stories reach a wider audience.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss a potential review, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at arnoldjmilesauthor@gmail.com. I look forward to reading your work and championing LGBTQ+ writers!
