As an author, I feel with Beta-reads(or in general editing itself), it is important that the Editor does not drive the plot/suggest alternative endings or beginnings, but provide his/her expert inputs into navigating through the plot by pointing out potential roadblocks, loopholes or blind spots in logic that the author would have missed and of course, fine-tuning the language.
Namrata, as a editor, plays this part with grace. She is sharp at checking the progression of the story. It is noteworthy that she attempts to understand the psyche of the author behind the characters he is trying to carve out. This quality makes her travel along with the author there by provide better inputs. – Jatin Kuberkar
