Sensitivity Readers

Sensitivity readers review manuscripts for accurate and respectful representation of cultures, identities, or experiences.

When to hire: Engage a sensitivity reader once the manuscript is stable enough that big revisions won’t upend their notes. Often used alongside beta readers before final drafting.
