Well, really...

I'm looking for someone to edit a story that I'm calling 'Big Wheel Turning'.
It's not part of the UEC universe, but it IS a 'first contact' type of story, containing furry aliens(of course), a BIG Russian, CIA clowns and someone named Anthony...
It's also written in first-person, present tense, not my usual mind-twisting third-person, present tense.

I'm asking for a new editor, not because I'm dissatisfied with Jim(he's great!), but because he's procastinating, always finding other things to do than write the follow-up to Redeeming Factors...

Anyone who feel up to the challenge can email me.

Boy! I tell ya, Anthony, I'm gonna kill the guy that stole my name! Razz

I should get to read your first two chapters tonight. I've looked it over briefly, and from what I've seen it doesn't seem too bad so far. But I won't be able to judge the rest of your style without seeing the rest of the story so I can contrast and compare your current style to the one you began with.

For the rest of you lurkers, that means Anthony has twisted someone else into doing his dirty work for him. Damn Norwegians!

I'll do your evil dirty work for you Anthony. Just send it over and I'll look it over for you.

Me and my big mouth...

But I guess I can't complain since I told you to go ahead and butcher it...

Strange....

I sent out the two files to FOUR different furs, but I've only gotten any feedback from TWO...

*Sigh*

For those that wonder; Editing means more than just reading it and spotting typo's, it also includes commenting on the grammar and general language. (And sometimes, if you think the plot stinks, you're allowed to say so Smile

What it doesn't mean is that you get a 'free' peek at the story before everyone else...

I'm sorry, Anthony but I told you that I'll only be able to try and spot plot mistakes and such. My English isn't yet good enough to be a full editor, especially not my grammar.

No, but at least you did the best you could.
(Can't ask for more, can I? )

As for the next chapters...

Not until I've rewritten chapter 2 a 'little bit', something which will take some time. (I'm very busy at the moment)
