In Need of an Honest, Good Editor (Full-Time) -- FOUND

So, as stated above I want a good, honest editor. I stress HONEST. I want someone not afraid to say "this part sucks." It HELPS me people, dn't be afraid to do it! So there's a form below, but, first, here's a few details: 1. The story is fantasy. 2. I will be choosing two editors. Neither of you will be "back-up" or secondary. I will send the same piece to both of you. See your two points of view. Edit accordingly. I may as the other if they agree with you. Then I will resend. 3. I am a perfectionist. Be ready for the same chapter to come your way a few times. 4. I wouldn't say my grammar is immaculate, but it is good enough. Though I definitely need someone strong in that department. 5. Payment is a dedication and fan. The dedication may be on chapters two or threek after a cover maker or the other editor. Password to make sure you read this is FIT.

Form: (Anything marked by as asterisk [*] is mandatory)

* Preferred Communication Method: (email, google docs or PM)

* Rate yourself 1-10, ten being the best, in the following categories:

Grammar: Honesty: (10 is "I'll be glad to tell you if you suck," 1 is "even if you spell the wrong I'll say it's great")

Examples of your Editing: (Links to stories you have edited)

* Time: (How long, on average—that means not on vacation or with computer troubles, etc.—it takes you to edit a three Wattpad page piece)

That's it for the form, though when/if you are accepted, I may need more information. Thanks in advance for any offers :) I will let entries come in for one or two days—I'll need to finish/edit the piece myself somewhat—then I will take a bit to review the entries. By the way, the examples of your work are not mandatory but HIGHLY helpful. If you don't have any, I wouldn't expect to be accepted, sorry. If you want to learn more about the plot first, I understand you might want to edit something that interests you, request it on here and I'll PM you a summary.

Fit.

*PM at first, for the pleasantries and any quick-stop questions before we get to work, then email or googledocs (preferable for the real-time communication) if you know how to use it.

*Probably an 8-10. I'm not rude--I won't say, "You're a horrible author, this is utterly a disgrace to writing as a whole and you should cry in a hole." But I will tell you if something is wrong or choppy; don't expect me to hesitate.

I can sadly say I have absolutely none of my prior editing information on file. I lost my account information to this site a while ago and I've just recently come back to it - now without my stories and my prior clients :/ Hopefully that's acceptable, though it seems not. Either way, I completely understand and figured it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

*I like to give myself a full seven days thanks to life, but it will rarely take that long. On the other hand, that also depends on your writing. If I'm editing a huge amount of your story it will obviously take me longer than average, so I can't give you a range until I really see your style of writing.

FIT I’d prefer if you emailed me if you have questions or anything related to the story. However, I do the physical editing on google docs so that you can see what I’m doing at all times, if you’d like.

As far as grammar goes I’m an eight or nine, I am a perfectionist when it comes to grammar, and I reread everything.

In the honesty category I believe I’m a 10. I will tell you exactly what I think should be added or changed, to improve the writing. I’m brutally honest but I’m open-minded and optimistic. I think there are multiple ways to approach a flaw in the storyline or to improve character depth.

It takes me about an hour to edit three wattpad pages. If the piece is incoherent then three hours would be the maximum.

I don’t have any examples of my editing available at this time I apologize for any inconvenience that may cause. Email me Kadijahedits@gmail.com

@Dijahboo52 Thanks for the application :) Yeah, I realize some people don't have examples, and honestly, I wasn't going to be looking at the examples unless the person talked lyk dis, because they might be posting like that, but be grammatically flawless when writing. But your grammar, from what I see, is great, so you don't have to worry. Thanks again.

@Frozen_In_Time No problem.

@Dijahboo52 @NovaRayne Alright, nobody else is posting, and you two seem like good candidates, so I shall be choosing you! I'm still doing some editing myself, so I'll probably be putting it up on docs sometime tomorrow. I'll email/PM you when I get it up. If you have any questions, just post 'em.

@NovaRayne Oh, yeah, I'll need your email for when we do Docs, so if you could PM me it, that'd be great.
