Hello guys, I have taken up editing recently and will help out authors who have just begun their journey with writing. I have experience in writing and editing, mainly under fantasy, sci-fi, action and adventure genres. If anyone needs an editor, let me know. We can talk further about it on discord.

I would like an editor. I'm writing a fantasy called "Mages of the North" and about to finish my first volume. It's a rare mixture of magic being used during the 17-18th century, which means a pre-American Revolution sort of time period.
If anyone's interested, let's talk.
First, figure out what type of editing you need: Copy, line, mechanical, substantive, developmental, manuscript, etc. Hopefully, its not editing you need, but simple proofreading.
Second, go over your own work. Look at things more from a substantive editing point of view. Especially chapter 1. If I have to power my way through chapter 1 to get to the good stuff, that story will likely be dropped. If your chapter 1 isn't that good, you may have to rewrite a lot of your beginning/early chapter to get a good starting chapter 1. And even if we ignore the rampant witch hunts in the 17th-ish century, promises of a "rare" combination of "magic" and "17th-18th century" isn't enough to get me to power through a horrible start. Make sure you're building suspense properly, and going straight into [an] action.
Third, use a grammar/spell checker.
If you think you did all that, feel free to ping me with your chapter 1, 2, and/or 3.

Alwan_ If I'm not wrong, Nou is an official editor contracted to webnovel.
Was. Was an official editor. Haven't edited any other works in a loong time.
qidian is his boss.
No, think of it like freelancing also: I'm also a freelancer and picked up a gig via Qidian--only, it's at their rate. So kind of like Uber/AirBnB.

Please note that I offer editing, copy editing, heavy editing, and proofreading services only.
Not sure which service is right for you?
You can use the following as reference:
a) If you’re looking for a thorough, critical, and in-depth review of your work that helps express your ideas in the simplest and crispest language, then choose editing.
b) If you’re looking for a simple language check where only minor polishing is needed, then choose copy editing.
c) If you’re work is a translated or transcribed content where no changes must be made to the voice and meaning, then choose heavy editing.
d) If you’re work has already been edited, and you only want a basic search for any typographical or minor text errors, then choose proofreading.
We can discuss any further questions on discord, so don't be shy and send your request.
