Hello everyone, One of my hobby is reading novels and have read quite a few novels but I have dropped quite a few novels as well due to it not being grammatically correct. Due to this reason I became quite interested in becoming an editor. But I have no experience, but I do believe I am quite good in English. So I wanted to ask if there is a way for me to find authors that need some editing to be done? or is there anywhere I can get some experience in this field of work.

And if any new authors currently need an editor and would like me to edit their work?

Or if I am not allowed to post this kind of topic please inform me and I will delete the post.

Thank you for your time.

    I'm actually looking for some help, although are you just looking for experience or paid work? ;3

        lilGoat I just read a few chapters of your novel and I have to say, your writing is very good and I cant find problems . I think if you want to improve your story, you would need a better experienced editor :)

          CrowGurung Hi, I just started the first five pages of my novel,Can you help proofread it and check for errors and point out anyway I can improve. I'm open to suggestions

              Glojade I was reading your novel and it was pretty good. You can make some improvements like in the 8th line of 1st chapter you could write 'The best friend of Glory's mom' instead of 'Glory's mum best friend'. So it could be longer and a little bit better . And I think you forgot to separate the lines in chapter two. It has huge gaps in the chapter. And in some places you have inserted commas behind '?'. I don't think readers would have problems reading your novel. If you could send me your discord I can try to do clean ups , do changes in some sentences and send it to you. :)

                  CrowGurung Hey can you check my book the one that's called Blood Knuckles? If so I'd like to hear your opinion.

                      Hello, can you also look at my Novel, a Game Genre, and I'm a fart in English, so check it out if you like to help me to make some improvement.

                      Title: God's Legacy: Do Parasite can live in a Game World?

                        Mysterious_Pen I would say, I'm pretty versatile. I read romance , fantasy , video games etc. I just read books and just keep on reading them. So, I'm sorry if you wanted a specific answer. I read whatever Is interesting to me. No specific genre to be honest.

                            The_Abyss_Returner Hello, your novel is very interesting and I like it very much, So I hope you can continue it. I think I can make some improvements in your novel, So if you have discord or something we can contact on, we can discuss more . Also I don't know if you can change the title but "God's Legacy : Can A Parasite Live In A Game World?" works better than "God's Legacy : Do Parasite can live in a Game World?" but if you like your title there's no need to change it as it is your novel. :)

                                Iqfauli Your story is definitely interesting and I'm guessing its genre is martial arts and mystery? I'm sorry if I'm wrong. And about the novel I'm not too experienced in first person perspective so I can't say too much. Stories are written in past tense most of the time but I don't know about first person perspective. For example : In chapter 1, paragraph 6, 2nd line, I think it would be better to write "my parents were dead" rather than "my parents are dead" and "the cause of their death was from burns" rather than "the cause is they've died from burns". If you want me to edit some of your work for you, You can send me your discord or some way to contact you. I could do some changes and sent the result to you for checking.

                                    Hey, I would like to get an opinion as well
                                    It's called Sealed Fate: Love Found and Lost

                                      Good day! I'm not seeking for a proofreader because I'm trying to learn to edit my own work, but I would like to know your opinion if I'm doing ok. Hope you can spare me some time. Thanks

                                        Samyra_K Hello, I read a few chapters from your novel and it caught my attention right away. It's very interesting and I love it. But I don't think I can improve your novel because I don't think that I can write better than you. :)

                                            Mysterious_Pen Hello, I was reading your novel and I believe I can improve your novel a little bit. So, I hope you can give me your discord so I can do some changes and send it to you. And see if you like it.

                                                bishop1275 Hello, I can say you have pretty good writing .But you still have some grammatical mistakes, Thought its nothing too big for readers to criticize about it. And it is something you can improve more as you write. For example : In chapter 1, Line 60, It would be better to write " would you like pain medication for your head instead" rather than "do you like a pain medication instead". Sentences as that could be improved as you get more experience. But it isn't inconvenient for the readers. :)

                                                    CrowGurung Hi!, if you have more time, could you please check my novel as well? The title of the novel is "Tales of the Rebirth Apocalypse Emperor."

                                                    I have just begun writing a novel since the beginning of this year, and it is also the first time I wrote anything in English this long. I would appreciate it if you could give me feedback on it. Thank you in advance! :) πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

                                                        CrowGurung
                                                        Oh. Thanks so much. At least I know i'm on the right path. I would take your advice and worked more on improving myself.

                                                            AmateurAuthor I have read your novel and I liked it. You also have some mistakes here and there but I don't think most people would notice it or criticize it. The mistake is minimum it's nothing to worry about too much. :)

                                                                lala_sanara I like your novel very much. I'm kinda into novels like you wrote. And I'm sorry I don't know what you meant as you said you are dragging your story to the ruins. If you mean grammatically you can read some English novels and stuffs to improve your writing. For example : In chapter 1, Line 1, I think " After reading the novel for two years" works better than "for two years of reading this novel." and if you meant the story, you can always ask the readers and get inspiration from other novels :). If you need proofreader and some editing you can contact me on discord my id is CrowGurung#4204 and I wont take payment as I'm only looking for experience.

                                                                    CrowGurung Thank you so much, really appreciate it. I will contact you then, I sent a friend request, it has the same name as mine here, Lala_sanaraπŸ’ž

                                                                        CrowGurung Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Could I ask you for the details of those mistakes? I would like to fix them and improve myself. My discord is AmateurAuthor#7438.
