The Definitive Book on Sensitivity Reading Released

 

Los Angeles, CA, December 21, 2018 — Whether you call them Sensitivity Readers, Diversity Editors or Targeted Beta Readers; their goals are the same: to add authenticity to manuscripts, scripts, marketing materials, gaming storylines which feature marginalized groups… and it’s a booming business in need of trained individuals. Sensitivity Readers, Diversity Editors and Targeted Beta Readers are not hired to edit out creativity, but to simply offer suggestions or alternatives, if needed. It is up to the client whether to use any of the suggestions or not.

Sensitivity Readers, Diversity Editors and Targeted Beta Readers have personal experience within a certain niche and are available to authors, publishers, gaming or marketing companies who include diversity within their creative content and want to make sure they are not unintentionally including bias or misrepresentation of a particular group.

To explain it even further, it is just another tool in the writer’s belt to use.

Example: If someone wrote a TV show based in a hospital or courtroom and they had zero experience in either, wouldn’t they hire a consultant who is a doctor or attorney to read over their script to make sure they’re getting it correct? This is exactly what Sensitivity Readers, Diversity Editors and Targeted Beta Readers do.

What Are *Some* of These Marginalized Groups?
– Minority Groups
– Different Cultures
– Different Religious Groups
– The Disabled or Physically Challenged
– The LGBTQ community
– Medial/Mental Disorders, etc.
– The obese or plus size

This book is for avid readers, writers and authors who want to offer this service.

So, You Want to Be a Sensitivity Reader? teaches:
– What exactly a Sensitivity Reader is (and Isn’t)
– How to discover their niche
– What a Sensitivity Review Covers (and doesn’t)
– How to can get started in the business and make a good living at it
