Nila is a highly skilled author assistant. Working with her is an absolute pleasure. She is prompt, detail-oriented, organized, cheerful, and thoughtful.
Nila has an incredible talent for everything book-related. She works her magic not only on the pages, but also as a personal assistant. She’s precious to me in every aspect of my career. I’m always impressed with book graphics (they are really that good!) and the words she uses in captions inspired from what’s going on in my own life so it feels true to me as a person and as an author. She’s dedicated and her organization skills are impeccable. In everything she does, Shalini is professional and devoted and those are qualities I look for when hiring a personal assistant.
I highly recommend Nila. I went with Nila after reading all the good reviews here, and at a recommendation of a friend. I am aiming for tradpub, and I read here that some of her clients she has beta-read for are tradpub.
Her advice has definitely made my writing stronger. I didn't know I was doing a vague "telling" thing with actions that should be more specific with "showing." She pointed them out in various places in my manuscript, and she provided some good examples of what she was talking about and how I could improve them. This will be something I will be watching out for in my future writing.
After having received Nila's feedback, I think of Nila as that final test that you must pass before starting your querying journey. I will definitely be using Nila again for works in the future.
Nila provides an exceptional beta reading service that I could not recommend more.
Most importantly, Nila offered ACTIONABLE feedback that helped improve my novel.
Nila read my manuscript three times which allowed her to provide detailed and comprehensive insight. She is very honest with both her positive opinions and constructive criticism.
She provided valuable insight on a long list of things, including: opening chapter, character development, plot/subplot development, world building integration, prose, pacing, scene structure, plot holes.
I’ll definitely be using Nila again in the future.
Nila has been fantastic in providing me with detailed feedback about how to better my book, Marie's Wedding. Her communication was good, and the way the feedback was presented was helpful, supportive and straightforward to understand.
I'm honestly so grateful to Nila for the time and thought she put into reading my draft. Her feedback was thorough and thoughtful — not just in spotting things I’d missed, but in helping me understand why certain scenes didn’t land the way I hoped. It genuinely made me want to dive back in and fix things. Nila’s suggestions were clear and actionable. She asked the right questions, challenged the weak spots, and celebrated the parts that worked — which helped me see my story with fresh eyes and more confidence.
Thanks to Nila, I now have a clear vision of the path ahead. I know what I need to do to make the manuscript sharper, more emotionally grounded, and much stronger than what I started with. I’d wholeheartedly recommend her to any writer looking for thoughtful, reliable, and insightful feedback.
Absolutely top notch. I've used Nila before for a previous book that I ended up getting traditionally published, and I believe her feedback was instrumental there.
Most recently, I submitted a speculative domestic suspense to her, and once again, her feedback was spot on. Nila has an excellent eye for detail, story, pacing, and character arc. She's kind, but she'll give it to you straight, which is what I want. Her keen eye has provided me lots of opportunities to tighten up my manuscript. She was also able to get me my feedback within a week, and a day early at that. She's exactly what one wants in a beta reader.
I can recommend Nila's services as a Beta reader. Working with her was such a pleasure from start to finish. She is responsive, reliable, and pleasantly professional. Her work is outstanding. She offered highly valuable insight into opportunities to improve my manuscript in terms of character development, world building, and plot cohesiveness and authenticity. While also letting me know what I got right. I took away actionable ideas from her feedback that are truly Gems. I would seek to work with her again and recommend her highly.
Nila is not only exceptional as an editor, but she invests herself in the story, and for me, it’s the difference between a good editor and a great one. She’s able to see the story as a whole, but also takes each chapter and each scene individually, and makes sure it shines. She’s my go-to person in my author career and I know I can always count on her honest feedbacks to improve the prose. When I’m looking for an editor, I want someone honest enough to tell me when something needs improvements (or let’s be honest, a big re-write) and where I got it right. I love how we can discuss the points we don’t agree on until they make sense to the both of us. Even her harshest critics are done in a gentle way with the sole goal to get the book to the best version it can be, and for me it’s precious. She helps me improve as an author with every work in progress we tackle. I will never not recommend Nila's services as a beta reader and an editor.
Trusting strangers (especially online) can be difficult, not just with your manuscript, but also with with your hard-earned money. But with Nila, you can't go wrong. Her turnaround time is quick, her honest feedback is refreshingly detailed, her work is impeccable, and her fee is very reasonable. She points out any issues with plot, characterization, dialogue, flow, grammar...and even offers suggestions for fixing it. If you truly want to polish up your manuscript and make it the best it can be, then I highly recommend Nila. I have been using her services since 2018 and she is always my first stop before publication. Thanks again, Nila! I love your suggestions on this one!
This was my first time using beta readers and Nila made it an enjoyable and productive experience. Her reports were very helpful as I get my book ready to send to a literary agent. Her comments help me to improve as a writer and I will continue to use her advice as I move forward in my writing career. I would definitely recommend Nila's services to any seasoned or aspiring author!
Manuscript completed? Check. Proofread? Check. It's time to send it to Nila! She will point out any issues with plot, characterization, flow, grammar or misspelled words, and make note of anything that doesn't work. Nila's beta reading services are invaluable and I highly recommend her to anyone who's seeking an honest beta reader. I always rely on her helpful feedback before publishing a new book. You can't go wrong with Nila. Thanks Nila!
I had the pleasure of working with Nila on my latest manuscript, and her feedback was invaluable. She has a thorough understanding of narrative structure and was able to dive deep into the underlying themes of my story. Her insights helped me identify areas for improvement that I hadn’t considered, and she provided clear, actionable suggestions that have really strengthened my work. If you're looking for someone who truly gets your story and offers detailed, thoughtful feedback, I highly recommend Nila. She’s been an incredible asset to my writing process
On the fence about hiring a beta reader? Look no more! I have been using Nila's beta reading services since 2018 and she is by far the best I've ever used. Always a pleasure, Nila! Thanks again!
When reading my 140k romance/fantasy, she was extremely thorough with her feedback and provided excellent notes that really helped me to understand what my book needed in order to become successful. She provided an in-depth analysis of each character and each chapter, and it was JUST what I needed. I had edited my novel several times over the past few months, and I felt “stuck” on what else could be improved upon (although I knew it wasn’t perfect… it needed SOMETHING). Turns out, it needed another set of eyes from a professional reader, who was able to tell me where I was lacking and where I was thriving. She pointed out the negatives and the positives, and it made me feel like I was definitely headed in the right direction. With Nila's assistance, I now feel that I can make this book something even greater- and hopefully begin queries late this year or early next year.
THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
I have used Nila for a second time as her feedback from reading my first novel was invaluable. So much so, I have since signed with a publisher. I have just received her comments for my second novel and I am as impressed as I was the first time. She is so thorough, incredibly encouraging and offered wonderful guidance, explaining what a reader is getting out of the novel and what is missing, how my characters make the reader feel and where their behaviour or dialogue is inconsistent. She has highlighted where the plot slows or grates and she offers thoughts on how, as a reader, she would like the story to progress. I hope she does this for many years to come as I have a long writing career planned and I don't want to do it without her amazing insight and advice.
Nila's kind but she doesn't mince words. She's a very astute beta reader, who can go straight to the root of the problem. Sometimes it may feel like a root canal, but she does it with a little novacaine so it won't hurt so much. But in the end, you're going to get a much better book. I appreciate her honesty. She's given me great feedback that will greatly improve my book. It's hard to take criticism sometimes, but we all need someone to tell us what works and what doesn't and give us a way forward. I'm back at it again, cutting out a lot of excess baggage, which should quicken the pace essential to my genre. Thanks to Nila, I'll have a much better chance of getting published
Hiring Nila as my developmental editor was the best decision I have made for my manuscript. She provided detailed feedback on every aspect of the story and found plot holes that my beta readers and I failed to catch. She pointed out all the flaws in my work in a positive way. She was patient and truly cared about my writing voice. I worked with her for more than a year and witnessed how passionate she is about her work.
