  • Hello again,

    I thought to add this to the above writing, but decided against it as it does not necessarily pertain to the discussion. I am fluent in 3 languages, namely Malay, English and Arabic. I am also a part of my faculty's editorial unit, though I mostly write articles. I can show you some of them if you would like to.

    I can also draw, not to the point where I can hold my head up and proudly declare myself an artist though haha. So if you want a character drawn for better visualization, I can do so if you hire me.

    And that is about it, thank you for your time.

    • Hello,

      My name is Wan, and as you may infer from the title, I'm looking for a gig to pass my semester break with. I usually work with proofreading my friends' assignments or theses, but those are borderline tedium, which is why I am trying my hand in creative work instead. As an added bonus I get to stay away from phytochemicals and egregiously named drugs.

      Now, let us talk qualifications. As I mentioned earlier, the bulk of my experience comes from proofreading academic scripts. However, I do have a long-standing interest in reading novels and webnovels alike, be it western or eastern. As such, I am familiar in the way they are written. If this is of any value to you, I hold a certificate in MUET with Band 5.

      Lastly, rates. 1.5$ per 1000 words is my offer after taking into consideration my own inexperience in this sector as well as consideration for the authors here. This is, of course, negotiable.

      To any interested, it would be a pleasure for you to email me through asofwan.a@gmail.com. If you prefer discord, my id is Wan#0300.

      • So, for anyone interested in hiring me, go to this discord server https://discord.gg/vhJpw8K
        It's my main server, quite a few people have come to me so this makes it easier.

        • SkyEmperor No need to apologize, it's not! 😃 Like what @Reinesse said, if it is an original, contact the author. On the other hand, if what you're talking about is an official editor, go to inkstone and do as I've written in my previous post (23rd I think)

              Wait... Have I seen you before at WuxiaWor-*gets beaten up by Qidian

              • Maybe, just maybe, I'll take part in this XD. I'm no longer writing but am now editing other's novels.

                  Uwaaaaahh! I feel so appreciated :smile: , even though I am practically riding on your thread XD.

                  Actually, recruitment is always open (I think) since the apply position button is always on the Inkstone dashboard. If you hover your mouse over the 'Assistants' button, the apply position button appears! If you click on it, you can apply for an editor or translator position. You'd have to fill in the form and go through a test (mine was to edit a chapter). Why don't you try it?

                  And yeah, it certainly is painful to watch great ideas being thrown away just because the presentation isn't good enough. I've read many interesting novels but the joy of reading them simply vanishes when I correct every grammatical error in my brain XD.

                  Anyways, LET'S MAKE 'MERIC--... I mean WEBNOVEL GREAT AGAIN.
                  :smile:

                  • Demonic_angel Oh! It should be Soar#0300 then. I'm not really well versed with Discord, so thanks for the tip!

                    • Hello! I'm open to being hired for editing as well! Though not necessarily paid anyways. :stuck_out_tongue: I applied for the editor position and am waiting for the results right now. In the meantime, I'd like to train myself in editing so feel free to hire me! English is my second language but I assure you of my capability in editing! (thanks for letting me ride this thread :smile: ). Edit: oh, and my discord is Soar :smiley: .

                      • Tamlena Thanks for the answer! Don't worry, I'm sure more opportunities will come! :smile:

                        • Hello there! I've applied for the editor position and now I'm wondering about how I'll be contacted by Webnovel for the results. Is it through e-mail or is it by Discord? I'd be very thankful for any response :smile:

                          • It's not yet too late I guess?
                            So my character is: Ivan Von Gromhart

                            -He is an OC I've drawn, I'm also an artist (anime)
                            -His backstory is set back in the European Middle-Ages where the governance is by aristocracy
                            -He is the first son of Earl Karl Von Gromhart, so he is the heir of the Gromhart House
                            -He was spoiled and pampered, thus making him vain, arrogrant and yet spineless
                            -Did not have many friends aside from the other noble children
                            -Went to a prestigious academy
                            -Some time later, went to a field trip(lol) where a... well... catastrophe happened.
                            -All of them got teleported to the Athelian Wilderness; an extremely dangerous place filled with monsters and demons
                            -Struggled to survive there and had his personality shifted thanks to the events which transpired. ( fought with his friends and the commoner students etc)
                            -Managed to survive, returned after x years
                            -Back home, he was declared as dead, the brother he bullied replaced him as heir
                            -And so, he left, becoming an adventurer/wanderer/whatever u want him to be.(I have'nt decided yet:))
                            -Tnx!
