Need An Editor

[ShroudingXs]

I need an editor, mostly for punctuation, and spelling. I have a plot but I wouldn't mind getting some pointers.

What's the story about? Or what tags would it have?

It's a gay male story, but it doesn't get hot and heavy until a couple chapters in. It has fantasy incorporated into it as well. The plot revolves around a 17 year old boy seeing and being involved in a strange event that alters his life. I'm afraid I cant go to in depth for fear of spoilers. I could send you the first chapter to see if you're interested.

Unless it doesn't get hot and heavy until after the protagonist turns 18, it won't fly at Literotica. You mention chapters. How many words is it in total?

As sr71 says, you'll need to make your protagonist 18 before any sex is described.

I wouldn't worry about spoilers on an editors' forum. Editors are here (and I do hope you find one) to help you write your story, and to do that they need all the information. Withholding that information won't help the editor help you.

I understand that you don't want to post stuff publicly, that's fine, when you work with an editor, you should put all the cards on the table.

I know they need to be 18, I'm planning just starting the actual relationship between the protagonists around chapter 10, and having a time leap 9 month ahead around chapter 13. The basic plot is Xavier witnesses a fight in a forest near his home and he meets a reaper and learns about a bunch of different creatures that usually are no threat to humans but are attacking and killing them as of late. It incorporates a lot of mythology with some tweaking. I don't know how many chapters the story will go on with, so It'll get new chapters indefinitely. It is showing the progression of Xavier and Tiberius(The reaper he meets in the forest) and their development of their personalities and abilities. I haven't written beyond the second chapter yet, but I plan on finishing at least two chapters a week,hopefully more.

Hate to say that your problem here probably is the magnitude of the project. I do GM, but I write it too and have a life. Couldn't take on a project this voluminous, and I wouldn't be surprised if no one else here could do it either for free. If you don't find someone, you could PM me and I could do one chapter to give you some sort of idea what needed to be done to the rest.
