OK I give in/Editor Wanted

[xxistential]

Well, I normally don't take the public comments too much to heart, but I jsuthad someone comment that they loved my latest story but there were misuses of words taht distracted them. I'll admit it, I couldn't find nay myelf, which leads me to believe that maybe I'm not as good of a "self-editor" as I thought. So I'm gonna swallow my pride and ask for help. Here's what I'm looking for:

I need an editor to look at a multiple part story, a rather large one. Each "chapter" is aprox. 35 pages in Word. The whole seriesis being categorized as Erotic Couplings, though there are some other elements in them (group sex, anal, etc., but nothing to far afield). The first two chapters are already up and I have 3 more ready to go, but I want to get them check out before hand.

I would really like a female editor for a specific reason. I want to shwo both perspectives, the male character's and the female characters', as both emotional responses are important, even if the scene is set primarily fromt he male character's perspective. These aren't stroke stories, they are meant to have some litteray value with good plot, well developed characters and of course, hot sex. I am trying to be careful not to go over the top and but hey, these are fantasies after all, so I don't want total realism. It is this balance between fantastical without being farcical that my editor will need to be able to sense.

So any takers? If so please e-mail me or PM me. Like I said I'd prefer a female editor, but that's not a hard fast requirement. If you are willing to help out please drop me a line. Thanks all.

Hi X

If I wasn't going on a month long hiatus from editing I would definitely put myself in the run to edit your story as it sounds right up my alley

Unfortunately as I said I'm taking a break starting...well supposed to start the 15 but in fact I've already started as I'm living in boxes for the moment and don't have the energy to do much more than sit on my ass after I've done more packing up.

Hope you'll find someone...look in the alternate editor's thread here on the EF...those who are there are very good at what they do...I can recommend every single one of them

If it's still not up to par with you...maybe you can wait until I come back July 20th and I'll be happy to take a look and help.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not in an all-fire hurry, so if no one else steps up, check in with me when you are available. Thanks.

I will look over it for you if you're interested. I can't promise that I'll have the edits to you in a day because like anyone else, I have things to do, but I'll do my best to get it done quickly and thoroughly. My e-mail address is in my profile. Cheers!

Nobody is a good self-editor. Or at least I have never come across one, and I learned to write more than sixty years ago!
