hi emitch
you have better luck finding someone to respond to you when you include the length of the piece you are wanting to be edited as well as what you are expecting from your editor (flow, continuity, or grammar)
you also need to turn on your private messaging as many people do not communicate through the boards, in the upper left hand corner, click on user cp, on the left, click on "options", scroll down to "enable private messaging" click on that, scroll to the very bottom and click "save changes"
good luck in your search

Thanks for the advice, I have changed my settings.
I am actually looking for feedback/assistance on those exact 3 things: grammar, continuity, and flow.
I have emailed many on the Editor's list, but absolutely no response. So I decided to try the boards. If no luck, I'll just post the story as is.
Thanks again!

Yes - all well and good, but is it 750 words or 75,000? That makes a big difference for an editor.
The list is hopelessly out of date and the best way to find an editor is via this forum, but please help us to help you. Length really matters because of the time we have available. A short story (4,000 words or so ) may only take a few hours to edit, but a novel length piece (60,000+ words) will take many, many hours, and very few editors have that much time available.

Editor needed
Tell me more, I'll be glad to take a look. How many words? Grammar, spelling, continuity are your requests?

FIRST, Thanks for all replies 
This is a relatively short story of only 1,300 words. I am looking for a simple beta-read. If interested, please let me know, and let me know your current turn-around time. I'm a bit anxious because I've been working on this project for some time, and finally got around to actually typing it. I'm ready to submit, but I just want an extra set of eyes to peruse it first.
Thanks!
