In a way, writing these stories and reading many others that are published here, help me to overcome this emptiness in my existence.

Availability: 7 to 10 Hours per week
Credentials:
Avid reader, have edited various publications for more than a decade. Also very well-informed on matters of science, technology, engineering, and firearms, should you need a content reviewer on those topics.
Turn Offs:
No pre-teen or age-inappropriate sex, or any central sexual violence. Moderate, consensual BDSM is okay. No bestiality, furry, or anything non-consensual. It's really more about the flavor of the story than any hard category filters, so feel free to ask.
Prefers:
I particularly like MC, Magic, SciFi, and historical fiction, but I'm willing to deal with almost any genre.
Comments:
I am very much looking forward to being a part of a story I lack the talent to write.

Hmmm. Professional "Technical Writer"? Author here and on A.S.S.? I used to help cmsix with his history? I used to tutor novices on A.S.S.D? Do any of those count as "credentials" here? Oh, yeah, I've been proofreading for the "Swarm Cycle" author's group for years; more than a hundred stories on that list should have proofreading/editing credited to me. And quite a few non-Swarm stories by the same authors. Should I give special mention to Allan Joyal's "Jord" series of novels? He's selling them on Amazon now, with me listed as proofreader.
Turn Offs:
3rd grade English - I can help you write, check spelling, grammar, etc. I cannot teach you how to speak English. I don't have any subject turn-offs. Well, _I_ do, but that won't stop me from helping you make your incredibly gross story into an incredibly interesting gross story.
Prefers:
Stories with plots and interesting characters - I help you make your story better.
Comments:
Look, there's a difference between an 'editor' who manages the story and a 'proofreader' who finds all the errors for you to fix. I can do either or both but here on SOL the author is in charge.
My mother was an English teacher. Because I'm a slow learner, I married one, too. I'll be a grammar and spelling Nazi if that's what you want, but I WON'T change the way you want to write. I'm here to help you, not change your story.

My standard advice for writing: Keep notes for longer stories to avoid inconsistencies.
Write a thousand words or more per day, even if it's crap and you delete it the following day.
Your first million published words are just practice. If people hate what you write, you're just practicing.
This is advice I read somewhere - I can't recall who wrote it, now. But, it works.

I have been of assistance to an author outside the United States who writes stories set in the U.S. As I’m sure you know, some things are called different names here. For example, “calling” someone in the U.S. means using a telephone. If you’re going in person, you “drop by” or “pay a visit”. Getting pissed only means one thing. Thanks!
