Looking for editor for a coming of age story

[Dusker19]

Hi, I'm looking to find an editor for a new story I'm writing, someone who can proofread it and point out eventual grammar, punctuation, and structural mistakes in the text, though I'm not opposed to getting suggestions and critics.

It's a coming-of-age story, with most of the characters being 18-year-olds. They go spend part of their last week of summer at a cabin by a lake owned by the family of one of them. A few of them are virgins, others more experienced, and a few others have a lot of experience. One of the main plots is the friendship between three of the boys; one of them moved out of town and did not see the other two for several years, and the remaining two (a geek and a jock) drifted apart after the third friend moved out. The return of this friend would be what starts making the trio whole again, along with having consequences and creating new situations for the rest of the teenagers as well. The other main plot point relates to those situations that the teens end up facing during the trip, sexual or not. There will be a few adults in the story as well, parents from some of the younger characters, to chaperone them. Most of the scenes will be between male and female characters, though I'll have some group sex and incest as well.

I don't know if I need to have the first chapter of the story published on the site for someone to be able to help me with this, but if possible, I'd prefer to find an editor for the first chapter as well, before I need to publish it. The first chapter has around 32000 words, and future ones would be in that range too.

Thanks for hearing me out!

Unfortunately I don’t have the time for a story of this size at the moment, but wanted to ask about the ages of the characters. The suggestion to me from your words is some are under 18, otherwise why would they need a chaperone and you say ‘most’ of the characters are 18. They will all need to be 18 or over, even if they are not physically involved with sex acts. Under 18’s cannot be in sight or hearing of sex, otherwise you will almost certainly get a reject.

Hey, as for the age of the characters, all of them are at least 18. A few of the parents went with them to keep an eye on everything and prevent the youngsters from getting too out of control, and so they could get some days off as well.
