Hello, cute community.
I just want to know about the procedure to apply for an editor's post. English is my first language, so I have the confidence to be the best. It's just the chance I need.
Thank You,
Peace Out

Lonelytree Thank you for your effort.
@WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL It's been 30 hrs since I sent my application but no response from QI side.
MissVixen It takes some time, be patient.
How does it feel to be an editor?
Quite good, at least from my experience. It's fun working on a novel you like, reading as far as 50 chapters or more ahead on a novel you enjoy than any other readers is capable, and just chatting or discussing the novel with your translator in general. This of course, depends on the translator, and the novel itself. If you come to dislike it, it might be tough. I was once asked to help out a novel that had a harem, which I never read because they annoy me to to no end, I agreed because, well, someone needed to aid it and I had some free time, but it instantly became a chore rather than a joy. Working on that novel started feeling like exactly that - work. Otherwise, editing for me is like reading and getting paid for it. Or that's how I feel when working on my current novels. (P.S. I haven't met a translator I didn't get along well with, so I don't have any complaints about them. Any one of them is great to work with)
How much work(Like time needed)?
Really depends on the novel, its chapter length, the translator's quality, your own speed. But in general, if you took one novel that has 7 chapter per week release rate, I'd say it'd take you around four hours to do them. But keep in mind that's me really averaging it. Some do it much faster, some much slower.
The attitude of the people above you?(Bossy or friendly or neutral)?
Very friendly. You can chat with them just like with other translators and editors, though, they are busy most of the time, so...
MissVixen You'll most probably receive the result by next week's Monday.
