Editor needed to look over one story.

I just finished a story 22,000 words, four chapters. The editor I was using has edited the first three chapters. When I sent him the fourth chapter his e-mail has been stopped. I've written him and PM'ed him but no replys. Any editors willing to look at the story and edit at least the last chapter?

If so, drop me a pm and I'll get your e-mail and send the full story to you. I of the questions I need answered is what catagory you think it should go in. The possibilites are Romance, Loving Wives and erotic couples. Also weather it should be submitted in multiple chapers or all at once. It would be 8 to 9 Lit pages.
Thank you

Good luck. SR71 is chasing all of the editors away. And don't expect him to edit. You're on your own, my friend.

I finally got an editor to look over the story. The editing waters do seem rather rough at the moment. I'm just happy that someone stepped foward.

All of the editors, AS?

Don't speak for others unless you can prove what you're saying.

Hi Mistress, how are you doing. You always were one of my favorites. Graduate yet? I did get a couple of fantastic people who offered to help me. Running kind of close on the Halloween story. No big deal if I don't make it. I'll submit it anyway. You know how bad of a writer I am. LOL Lots of ideas but not very good at expressing them. Nice talking at you.

I can prove he's chased off one. And where there there's one, there's usually more. Hundreds more, using Obama's model.

Tell the truth

But since Laurel has cut me off from adding stories, I'll be deleting them. All of them.

It doesn't reallly matter, does it?

I feel I'm wronged. And the wronged element passes.

Doesn't matter in the end.

You know what? Fuck it! Fuck SR71, who you seem to be protecting for reasons that escape me. And I'm finished here, SR has seen to it.

This forum has witnessed an end to a pretty good editor. An end to a time when there were editors waiting for writers.

Why are you doing all this venting on my post? I'm sorry you have problems with Lit and I can accept you posting a message about it being hard to find an editor but ranting on my post doesn't solve anything.

I did get two repies from two fine editors and each edited a story for me. Not all editors on this site are bad, (as you say) some are very helpful.

DG, I'm sure it wasn't intentional, but be careful about putting quotes in the wrong mouth.

Mistress Lynn didn't say what you quoted her as saying I'm sure. I'm not sure who said what, because I have liberally applied the ignore function here.

He wasn't addressing Mistress Lynn; he was addressing AsylumSeeker. The quoting just got messed up.

Sorry I allowed my unusual anger to be vented in an incorrect way. Oh, this is different (the new interface I mean).

Anyway, as I have previously mentioned, SR has chased me off.

Good luck in your search for an editor.

Best of luck.

Miss Lynn is a very good friend of mine and knows I would never say anything bad about her. I can see where you might have thought my comment was aimed toward her, sorry about the slight confusion. Lynn was one of my favorite editors. She was named most helpful editor that year and then chose to go back to college leaving her little time for editing.

Glad we could straighten it out.

You win the carrot. Atleast the throbbing tip of it, if you're so inclineed.

I'll even explain if you'll allow. And will do so anyway.

That''s not an offer often conceded, so give me a few poinst for honesty. But of course you libs won't stop at an apology, you angry bunch are out for blood.

So take mine.

You'll be the high means you have my backbone that Obama is screwing.

Yes, I originally joined as flyer333. But my alias was too close to my acrtual email back then. A 'friend' spotted me and so I panicked. I killed the membership and my srories with a different name.

Not to beat a dead horse, but I worded my comment as I did because I knew it was a problem with the quote boxes rather than anything else.

Nonetheless, if I saw a post here quoting me as saying, "Fuck you...fuck him..." I'd be a little miffed. It wasn't your comment, DG; it was the way that the quote of her comment was formatted, running two separate quotes together under ML's name.

All right, since said quote involved me, I'll comment.

How many people would see a thread and read just one post? Especially if that post wasn't the first one.

I assume anyone opening a thread would read all the posts as a way of discovering the full contents. Or they would at least scan the thread to see who posted what. In addition, if anyone made frequent visits to the EF, they would be familiar with some of the authors and the type of comments posted.

With that, I'm returning this thread to the OP.
