I am sure it will be good dude, but I don't really know how to really be an editor for a story but maybe this could hlep:

While I'm not much of an editor, I do proofread, and would be happy to lend you a second set of eyes. I am however rather busy, so hopefully you're not in a rush. I think the last chapter needs a second look, I saw a number of errors while I was reading it just now.
As for tools to help you with the story, you might take a look at Zoho writer, it's free like Google, and has a really powerful document analyzer tool.

To be honest, I was hoping to be able to release this chapter this weekend. If you're busy that is of course understandable.
Your comment has also prompted me to go through chapter 4 again. So hopefully now most mistakes should be gone. If you see any mistakes always feel free to comment.

Could always do what some of the authors I work with do, and release it on time, and update it when it's done. It's a combination of being busy (have a 12.5 word chapter to work on tonight/tomorrow), and the fact that I like to scan it once for 'obvious' errors, then read it at least twice, which means I typically need at least two days to get a story done, possibly longer.
Also if'n you want to try out that writer I suggested, I can link you to a test document if you'd like, Google ID at least works for assisting, not sure about creating.

You're more than welcome to send me any corrections you have after publishing, of course.
I did make an account on Zoho.

True, but it's obviously easier to work from the online document than the published story.
Cool. Zoho writer is something I only recently discovered while looking to ditch Google as much as I can (I have a blog here about that), even though I've had an email account with them for years. I was really impressed by the Zia feature, aside from the fact that it's targeted at business communication, so it's quite possible for one of the errors to be that your writing is too casual.
