I EDIT YOUR FANFIC FOR FREE

Ok, now that I hopefully got your attention:

Yes, for free, no payment whatsoever, no fine print, nothing. But I do need one thing in return. First, however, a little about me:

I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish and worked as a scientific editor for 2 years (I was formally trained to do this job, so my knowledge of English is pretty solid). I am currently trying to move to the publishing industry, but I have no experience editing fiction.

That is where you come in: the only thing I need is your consent to use an edited excerpt of your fanfic in my sample portfolio. This can be anonymous, and I can change any character names if you are more comfortable with it.

Please keep reading if you are interested!

Because I do have a full-time, unrelated job, please expect me to take a little time to deliver. As for the fanfic length, I'd say anything under 10K goes. You can send me a single chapter as well if you want to.

I would ideally like to experiment with different levels of editing (developmental, line editing, copy editing), so please request whichever you prefer.

In terms of content... I am willing to edit anything, honestly. I have been reading fanfiction since before we had warning tags, and I frankly don't care. That being said, I might not be able to take you on if it is 100% just PWP (again, I want to use excerpts for my sample portfolio).

I am open to editing works from fandoms I am unfamiliar with, but you can give me a crash course on character dynamics if you think it's necessary.

Ok, I think that is all! Please private message me here if you want to connect. You can call me Ro.

The Inheritance Cycle - FANCAST

Ok... time for a confession. Most of these have been gathering dust inside my brain for years, because I started the series before University and around the middle of Brisingr I kinda just... quit.

BUT, I have now resumed reading (which is putting some major strain on my memory) and I still love the series, so.

This is for The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini

And since there are about a million characters, they will just kinda come along in whatever order I think fits best.

- ANGELA -

The Raven Boys - FANCAST

The moment of truth has come…. and I have completely ignored nationalities and/or languages spoken in some cases because I was blanking.

HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY - Fancast

I FINALLY finished the behemoth that is the Ultimate Guide to the Hitchhiker’s Galaxy and am ready to shout my fancast into the void as usual. There are a ton of characters so this will be the most relevant in my head.

This is The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.

- Arthur Dent -

- Ford Prefect -

- Zaphod Beeblebrox -

- NICK -

- THE COMMANDER -

- MOIRA -

- OFGLEN -

- GUY MONTAG -

- CAPTAIN BEATTY -

- MILDRED -

- CLARISSE -

- FABER -

- GRANGER -

[fancastingforfunsies]

Howl’s Moving Castle FANCAST (the book)

I’m just having fun with these, honest.

This is for Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones 

(NOT the Ghibli Movie)

- OLD SOPHIE -

- YOUNG SOPHIE -

- HOWL -

- MICHAEL -

- LETTIE -

- MARTHA -

- MRS PENTSTEMMON -

- MISS ANGORIAN - 

and yeah... I’m definitely missing a Witch and a couple of the misters but my brain just didn’t consider them relevant enough I guess (read: I forgot to save them on my Pinterest board and now I don’t remember whose faces I used....)

[fancastingforfunsies]

The Picture of Dorian Gray - FANCAST

Yes, this is officially a thing now... (three’s a pattern.., if it looks like a duck.., etc.)

This is for The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.

- DORIAN GRAY - 

- BASIL HALLWARD -

- HENRY WOTTON -

- SYBIL VANE -

- JIM VANE -

Short yet not so sweet that one. They’ll keep coming in no particular order and in no set schedule now.

[fancastingforfunsies]

GOOD OMENS - Fancast

Another self-indulgent, entirely personal take.

This is for Good Omens by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman

Emma Fancast

Because apparently I can’t rest until I scream my fan-casts into the void....

This is for Emma by Jane Austen

- Emma -

- Mr Knightley -

- Frank Churchill -

- Jane Fairfax -

- Mr & Mrs Elton -

- Harriet Smith -

- Mr & Mrs Weston -

These are all 100% self-indulgent. I simply cannot go through a long book without associating a familiar face, but most importantly, a voice and mannerisms to the characters.

Me, at fictional characters: THIS WOULDN’T BE A PROBLEM IF YOU JUST TALKED ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS

Me, in real life: if i give even the vaguest notion of my feelings to anybody i would die
