Ruqayyah  | 951 comments Introducing our editing/feedback/call it what you will scheme! Under this folder, you can:
~Register your interest to offer feedback and editing services
~Request these services
~Inform others of editorial services
~And probably a bunch of other stuff. Or maybe not

Please note:
This is not a professional editing service at all, as much as I would love to say I am an editor with bunch of experience, I can’t- I’m merely a crazed bookworm, like the majority of you beautiful people. This service is not professional or certified or whatever. Be that as it may, you can post means of contacting editors on here too- so others can find someone too.
Unless you are an editor, then you can allow writers to reach out to you for your paid service, under the appropriate section.
This idea is ideal for freelance writers, homework + essay writing (this is a check of your work and no one is doing other people’s homework, sorry), self-publishing authors and people who just want to get some free advice and tips. If you plan to not self-publish but use a publishing company, I recommend you look at editorial services with that company too.
Before sending any of your pieces to your chosen ‘not-editor’ -no one can hold liability for it except for you and the ‘not-editor’- so, only send to people you trust; make sure you have original copies of your work and send random bits to one person- so even if they took it for their own (which is disgusting and idiotic- so please don’t be doing that- you can write wonderfully if you try), they wouldn’t be able to do much with it.
Even after sending your work to a ‘no-editor’, your piece may still have grammatical mistakes etc because -you guessed it- they are not an editor.
While I still suggest getting an actual editor for your works, you can use this service for free help and friendly support to skip that process and want a light check over your work.
We also have an area where Beta readers can be found- you can have your own appropriate terms but generally, it’s your free book for an honest review.
I am pretty sure there was more I wanted to say but I’ve lost it- so any questions, just ask!

Please read the other sections too before submission.

(Sorry if this was overly serious or stern.)
