Jason Rimbaud Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Dear Editors, I am looking for an editor to help me with a three part story. I have re-written the story several times and I can go no further without help. I'm not sure how I go about getting help so if anyone has ideas I would love to hear them. Thanks Jason Link to comment
Graeme Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Hi, Jason, I'm not an editor so I can't help you, but it might be useful to provide a few more details, such as the genre (some editors love science-fiction& fantasy, for example, and others hate it) and a rough indication of the size of the work (eg. number of words, lines or pages). Good luck! Graeme Link to comment
Jason Rimbaud Posted September 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Thanks for the advice Graeme. The story is thirty-nine pages total and around 20,000 words. Steven and Aaron, though dating for over a year, are still very much in the closet. Steven, the star swimmer, and Aaron, the popular soccer player, really need some time alone together. And after nearly being caught by the swim coach in the locker room, they decide to rush home to finish what they started. But as soon as they leave the school it seems the universe has other plans for them. One frustrating situation after another arises, thwarting them at every turn. Whether it's stranded friends, love sick cheerleaders, or mothers returning home early, their patience will be stretched beyond the breaking point. And before the sun rises, friendships will be cemented, secrets will be revealed and love will be tested This story is light hearted and somewhat humerous. But really needs an editor's touch. Thanks again. Jason Link to comment
TalonRider Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 I'd offer to do to help you out, but now that I'm officially part of a new program elsewhere, I'm going to be a bit busy. Jan Link to comment
vwl Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Jason, If you still need someone, I'd be happy to take a crack at it. I've edited for three authors (novels) now and have written my own--two parts: Jake's Hand and Jake's Side--at NIfty/Relationships. I sent you a PM earlier, so you have my email address there. vwl Link to comment
