Seeking Proofreader for Romance Chapter

[DryLips]

Hello,

I'm seeking a proofreader for my romance chapter. There is teenage sex (18 year olds) and group sex (ffm). It is written in the first person, present tense from the POV of a the male protagonist.

I am looking for some who will proofread by checking for typos, wrong words used (that the spell checker won’t pick up), tense usage, and grammar mistakes.

I am using Word to spell check, Grammarly to check for grammar, and text-to-speech to check for other errors but I’m still finding mistakes after the fact.

I'm also using CMOS 17 as my style guide (though have to admit, I don't have the whole thing memorized).

I’m very open to suggestions or changes the proofreader may have, if any.

Thank you for your consideration.

Happy to have a look, but I only do real English.

Bummer. My characters don’t snog or shag...at least, not using those words

I guess I should have added that my story is in American English

'Those words' are Old Saxon. Sorry I'm not your ideal proofer, but if you're still stuck in a few days then get back to me....

I'll help. American English is my first language. But, I think you should also ask the Builder because sometimes things get lost in the translation.

Builder knows I'm just takin' the piss out of him because I think he's havein' a bath.

But doesn't know:

I'm just joshin' him to make him feel copacetic.

There is and enormous amount of the English language that even us natives don't understand or even comprehend. But we DO know the rhythm and cadence that it should make. So both sides should help.

Hi Zombie!

Thank you. I'm currently working with an editor (just started this weekend). I very much appreciate your offer!
