I've written a non-fiction book on how to design the envelope for a sewing pattern. It goes into design elements, such as color scheme, fonts, layout, theme, and cover art, plus other factors that need to be considered. The book is about 14,000 words, but it's extremely image-heavy (lots of examples shown) so the PDF is 71 pages.

I need someone to beta-read this for me, mainly looking at voice and flow. I'm not worried about grammar and spelling, but I do need a check for typos. I'm also concerned with how easy it is to understand, whether it makes sense, stuff like that. Someone with art or design experience would be a definite plus, although that isn't a requirement.

I'm open to swapping. PM me if you're interested or want more details!

Still looking for a beta-reader or two for my non-fiction book. The book is about how to design the front cover for a self-published sewing pattern. I'll take help from any quarter--you don't have to be an expert on anything except writing!

Reply or PM me, if you're interested.
