Editor

Hi, I'm Boshra and I am a potential writer. I love reading, and at the moment, I’m considering the career of a publishing editor and maybe even professional writer if I deem myself competent enough. I’m an English student, and I don’t have much experience in editing; however, if you need someone to help with your stories, fanfics or books, please feel free to contact me!

My AO3 and Wattpad!

Looking for editors who’d like to befriend and help a bitch😭😭😭

Hii,

So I’ve taken a long break from writing anything and I apologize. However, this post is not an update. It’s more of an offering of services.

I’ve been struggling financially (like most people) since the beginning of Covid-19, unable to find a long-term job, no matter how much I try, due to my lack of experience. I am going back to school in September.

I am offering my editing services for anyone in need of it. This includes spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc. My prices will be very fair and negotiable. This is mainly for school projects, but I am open to editing other works.

If you are interested, PLEASE send me a private message.

Boosts would also be appreciated.

Thank you so much!!

EDIT: If you would like other examples apart from my fanfictions, please ask! I’ll happily show you some.

Writing Resources Masterpost

I thought in compiling a list of various sites that come in handy for writers. They’ve helped me, that’s for sure.

Vocabulary

Wordreference: Online Dictionary/Thesaurus in English, Spanish, French, German, and several other languages.Verb conjugation. Languages Forums. Great site for those who has English as second language.

Writing Challenges

NaNoWriMo: It stands for National Novel Writing Month. An annual, Internet-based creative writing project that takes place during the month of November. NaNoWriMo challenges participants to write the first draft of 50,000 words (their minimum number of words for a novel*) from 12:00 a.m. on November 1 until the deadline at 11:59 p.m. on November 30. NaNoWriMo aims to encourage worldwide creativity, get people to write, and keep them motivated throughout the process. Exist official forums in the site, where participant all around the world provide advice, information, criticism, support to fellow writers.

(* Participants' novels can be on any theme, genre of fiction, and language. Everything from fanfiction to novels in poem format, and metafiction is allowed.)

Camp NaNoWriMo: A summer version of NaNoWriMo. Two sessions are held on April and July every year. The rules used for the main event in November also applied to each Camp NaNoWriMo session, except that participants may also choose their goal, either in words, pages, hours or lines. The Camp NaNoWriMo website does not have forums, but participants may choose to join a group of up to 11 writers, called a cabin. Each cabin, public or private, has its own message board, visible only by members of that cabin.
