Looking for a couple of pre-readers/editors. · 7:06pm Oct 8th, 2013
That's plenty of people, thanks! If you messaged me, I'll get back to you tomorrow.
As the title would suggest, I'm looking for a couple people to fill the role of pre-reader/editor for my upcoming story (currently without a title). Seeing as I'm going to be writing something that's over 6k words in length, and seeing as I've never had anyone look over my stories before posting them, I figured that it'd probably be a good idea to get a couple people on board for a much longer story. There's a couple of things I'm looking for and things that you'll need to be aware of if you're interested, so if you are, read on.
Things I need from you:- Be somewhat fast at reading what I give you. I'd like to be able to publish new chapters on a weekly/bi-weekly schedule (as things permit).- Be okay with reading clop. This upcoming story will have some in it, but it will only be used to further the story—it won't be the focus.- Have a good understanding of story structure and things I shouldn't do. I'm rather bad at this, myself.- Be a little concerned with spelling and/or grammar. These two are strong points for me and I can pretty much self-edit to that extent, but occasionally things slip through.- Maturity. I like to write about heavy subjects and one should approach them with an open and mature mind.
Things you'll get from me:- A chapter or 5-10k words (probably averaging 6-8k) every week or two, starting in a week or two from now.- Fast changes. If you see something that needs changing and I agree, I'll most likely have the changes done the same day.- A mention that you've helped me out in the fic.- Everlasting gratitude. (Really!)
If you're still interested, either comment on this blog post or send me a PM, either is fine. If you have references or anything else you'd like to include, it's not necessary, but may help.
Rushing out the door, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
I'm interested but not sure if qualified enough in the grammar and structure department.
As previously stated, I'm available if you need me.
I'd love nothing more than to help you with your stories, alas, I am not one for clop in the slightest. Hahaha, although I shall be looking forward to the story since it is not focused on the clop.
