Help about translation

[RioWriter]

Hello
I am an author of a dozen stories and novels. I want to publish it but I am not a native English speaker so my stories probably have a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. is there any good soul who can do a little correction and proofreading on my stories so we can publish them? No need to be professional, we are just amateurs who like to write and read sex stories.

Have you tried asking in the editors' forum?

 

[RioWriter]

Not yet. I will do it. Thanks.

When you ask, I would recommend posting a few paragraphs from one of your stories so editors can get an idea of what they'd be volunteering for. I'd also mention the word counts.

Editing a short story can be a quick process or many hours' work depending on the quality of the material. I'm very reluctant to volunteer for editing material by somebody I don't know, unless I have some way to tell how much work I'm taking on.

Thanks for the answer and the advice. Do you think I should post a chapter here on the forum or...?

Not a whole chapter, just a few paragraphs, in the Editor's Forum where you're asking for help.

Yes, the general rule is not to post more than a few hundred words here in the forums. Officially it's "no more than three paragraphs", but paragraphs aren't what they once were. I'd stick to an upper limit of 300 words.
