I want a editor to look at my stories and correct my spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Do I have to pay these volunteer editors? If so -- How much?

Thanks, Feelsgood.
 
NOTE: VOLUNTEER EDITORS - means exactly that Volunteer...99.99% of the time that means FREE

However if you want to pay one you will have to work that out with them....

Yes, we do require 'pay'. But the currency is respect, admiration, the occasional kissing of feet <higher than the knees is up to you>

Let's not forget the six pounds of chocolate, solid promise of adoring editorial mentions at the beginning of stories, and...a goat.
All tremendously important. Especially the goat.
 
Of course, some editors are quite poor, and would most appreciate a small monetary donation from you. Your thanks and praise can only go so far for some editors. I'm not saying that's the case with me, mainly because I'm not a VE here at Lit.

So, if you do want to pay the editor, work it out with them, and arrange some method of payment that is convenient for the both of you.

Have fun. ;)

For those who may not have fully understood this element of reward, remember the old proverb, For sons, a woman; for pleasure, a boy; but for sheer delight, a goat.
 
I'm pretty sure a lot of people would agree with me in saying that a very sincere thank you is very good way of paying one of the VE's.

Yer damn skippy.
Just...make sure you lock up all your socks and underwear. I think goats like eating unmentionables. Why? Well, 'cuz they're goats.

That's just nasty. Give me a good woman (without STDs) anyday. Keep the boy in school, where he belongs, and keep the goat on the farm where it belongs.

What's nasty? A boy to fetch the beer from the cooler, as you eat your grilled goat steaks, after a good sex session?

"To the pure, all things are pure!"

Ahh, well, why the hell didn't you explain that in the first place? Keep in mind that this is Literotica. You've got to expect some rather perverted ideas to pop up.

I didn't think it necessary to state the obvious!

Normal sex - what I do and will admit doing.
Abnormal sex - what I do but will not admit doing.
Perverted sex - what I would like to do but my spouse won't let me.

Definitely wouldn't have know those definitions; go ahead a guess.

Always remember, you can take Jethro off the farm, but you can't pry him off the sheep :D

Which Brings To Mind An Old Joke...

How do you separate the men from the boys in the navy?

With a crowbar!

<OK, you can laugh now>
