Need some help · 8:17pm Jul 17th, 2015
Hi, if you've been stalking my story comments you might have seen that I made a comment saying that I should be able to get the story out in a couple of weeks, if not sooner than that.. well.. my editor has cut all contact with me it seems like. I don't know what has happened to her, but the fact of the matter is, I need someone to help me Edit, just a single person is all I require. What the job of editing means in this case, is making sure my punctuation is on point, my grammar isn't too jumbled (though that thankfully doesn't happen too often) and some other things. I can give more indepth details for those that wish to contact me about it.
If you're interested in becoming my editor, just send me a PM or leave a comment down below, whichever one makes you comfortable and that you prefer.
I wish i could help but sadly I am rather iffy with my spelling and grammar
I'm open to help, Though I'm better at phrasing and how characters think than grammar if that is okay.
I'm open to help as well. I personally like dealing with grammar that isn't my own.
I'd be willing to help. Technically, I'm more than proficient enough to ensure grammar and such is up to snuff, and I'm well versed enough in the dynamics of telling a story that I can offer feedback on that as well, if desired. My schedule for when I can work would be erratic for the next week and a bit, but I can make time here and there to make things work. It's been a little while since I did editing work, and I'd like to get back into it.
I feel that I should clarify what it is that i'm asking... My grammar is completely up to par, if not above par, it is very rare that I am grammatically incorrect. What I DO have problems though, is punctuation, though i'm getting better at that, but i'm not too good at.. pretty much I guess you could say College level writing. I have not taken a single Class of college, though I probably should. Things that I honestly don't know too much about, like prepositional phrases (I don't even know what that means, I probably already know the definition if you told me, but I couldn't match the two up, that's for sure). I want someone who DOES understand these things, and can help point them out to me, and teach me to make less of those mistakes in the first place.
Heck I didn't know what a Hypothetical meant until my editor pointed it out to me. I mean I understand what it is, and kind of understand what to do with them, and partially know what NOT to do with them. but.. yea. Its things like that, that I need help with. I'm 22 years old, i'm not in high school English classes, and even in High school, my grammar was damn near impeccable.
Welp! new update, apparently my editor had left to the countryside in which they had ZERO internet.
So, they had no way of contacting me, now I don't know if they told me or not, but if they did, well... I forgot then, if they told me they were going someplace without interwebz...
So no need for a new editor, now I need to smack her upside the head for worrying me so much!! >.<

Does this mean I shouldn't post anything I see as a grievous error?
3402086 is that supposed to be a pun or something? 'cause seeing you say that, I can only think of General Grievous from Star Wars...

The word popped into my head and I felt I could use it. Though I was also thinking of Grievous Fan. Though General Grievous works too.
She does fun art.
