Alright, I have a question concerning my recent edits. I’ve got a number of people wanting me to do some edits for them (you may or may not have seen these edits). I have a lot of other responsibilities and time constraints, but I do enjoy working with everyone and going through their stories to give them a reader’s perspective. I’ve also had some background in editing, so it helps me to draw from those experiences.

My question is, could I post a thread specifically dedicated to people posting what they would like edited, or would someone have a better idea? My reason for wanting a specific place to do the edits is so that I would be notified when someone wanted another story excerpt edited. This will help me to manage my time and make room for the editing process. Right now I have to check all the other posts to see who has requested editing, or check my PM box.

Like I said, I enjoy the work and love the satisfaction an edited piece brings to the author of the manuscript. I’d love to keep doing it; I just think it would be easier to have a specific place for the editing process. I’d love feedback and any suggestions.

That is precisely what the Holy Worlds Editing Folders are for. Check the Announcements room (I think) for more details.

I keep hearing about these folders. I must not be understanding everyone, or I’m just not an observant person (probably the latter of the two). Where are these folders? I went to the Announcement page and didn’t find anything on editing folders.

Here are the thread links:

Soo... You have to have a Gmail account to get on there (besides being given access)?

I wouldn't mind you editing my "Untitled" story, Airianna...it needs work! You can find it in story excerpts under Zaciré Book...the thread has a link to the Google Docs link.

I’d be honored. I'll take a look tonight when I snuggle down in my bed. That's when I do the majority of my work.

You don't have to have a gmail account to use the google docs folder... but it is advisable and preferred. It seems to work better.

'Sides... gmail is the best.

Thanks for the advice Evening. To be honest up until two weeks ago I'd never been a part of a forum. This is all new to me.

Ah. And I am inclined to agree. Do you have to have an email address at all, because I use my mom's (I know, I know, I'm working towards getting my own. )?

Yes you have to have an email address, but using your mom's will be fine with us, as long as it is fine with her.

Okay! Thanks!
