New guy in search of editor

[Darksyde61]

Greetings, all!
New guy here in search of patient editor. I would prefer a female editor as my target audience is primarily female--women who are turned on by the male perspective. I tend to be a bit wordy and often get "hung-up" on sensual details, i.e. colors, sounds, tastes, textures...well, you get the picture. Also, for now I am limited to email for the most part as I use a public computer and the filters are good. I'm 44, fairly intelligent, and a bit unconventional, so do I have any volunteers?
Hoping to hear from someone soon,
Mark
P.S. My writing style is something like Douglas Coupland and Robert A. Heinlein co-writing a short story after reading "Letters to Penthouse" over vodka martini's.

Hi Dark, and welcome to the EF

My editing plate is full or I would take you on but I wanted to properly welcome you to the wonderful world of editing.

I'm sure one of our most talented editors will see your request and jump at the chance to work with you.

If nobody answers you and you aren't too much in a rush to get your story back to you, send me a PM and I'll see what I can do.

Geez, I knew I shouldn't have returned <sigh>

That's an in-joke, by the way. PM me and I'll take you on. I don't possess the skills of editing that LadyC does, but I am a writer and can assist in areas that she can't. I have 61 subs and none have been refused. I can get you there, and in style.

So glad to see you back.....you've been missed!

Merci beaucoup, les literotiques!

Thanx, AS (and LadyC as well) for your rapid replies. I am in the process of getting my first couple or three pieces together, organizing a bit, and I'll shoot you (AS) a bit for your critique a.s.a.p. Please be merciless, I kinda like that!
