I really need an editor

[Gianniana]

I need someone who is very very VERY consistent, and pretty tough. If you're editing a big story or are working on more than three, DON'T contact me. It's a story for the Interracial Love category (bw/wm). It's definitely a work in progress, so I'll need someone who can work with me in deciding where the story should go in addition to helping me go over it with a fine toothed comb for grammatical and spelling errors. I'll have no problem at all expounding any details you need to know from what I've written thus far, so please don't hesitate to PM me or email me Email deleted as per Literotica Forum Rule #4 so that we might discuss them.

Thank you so much!
Gia

What you're asking for really is a coauthor, I'm afraid. Real editors don't work on fiction until it's finished--and they don't write the story; you do.

I might also add, Reading something for the first time, you pick out alot of spelling / grammatical mistakes. Reading something you've wrote / helped write actually lets you miss quite a few spelling mistakes, because you know what it Should say, and you end up missing some mistakes.

Thus, having an editor write with you, may end up causing a few extra grammatical mistakes.

(Or not, just saying its a possibility.)

Thanks!

I guess I was thinking about an editor that gave input as to what he or she thought about the story from a reader's perspective. (that's kind of funny that I have a hard time verbalizing what I mean and I'm trying to write a story).

Ask for "readers" then (I think called "beta readers" by some here, but I don't hear that term used in the publishing industry). That would be closer to what you're looking for at this point, I think. Hope you find the help you're looking for.

 

[Gianniana]

Yeah, that sounds about right. Thank you!

Then again, maybe not.

Gianniana, take a look at my current submissions, which are primarily in the interracial category (bw/wm) and send me a message through the system or via my profile, if you are still looking for someone to work with you.

You might get a better response if you switch on your Private Messages. Go to User CP (top left of this page) then click on Edit Options (in the left hand column) and then tick Enable Private Messaging in the second box down. Make sure that the next box down (Receive Private Messages only from Buddies and Moderators) is NOT ticked. Finally click Save Changes at the bottom of that page.

As I said elsewhere, you are looking for a 'developmental editor', but the titans don't seem to be up for the game.

It would be better if you had a roughly finished story first.

As I said elsewhere

Where is elsewhere? somewhere you can guarantee that the topic author has been?
