Aroslav (A Thousand Words, Art Project, Yelloweye), EzzyB (all of the Chaos stories), the_scribbler, Strickland83, Warlord I'm a published non-fiction author who has for many years been an acquisitions editor for a small niche-market publishing house, in addition to continuing my work as a freelance developmental editor and occasional book doctor. I've been around on Storiesonline and before it on ASSTR and the newsgroups for longer than I'd care to admit, and in that time I've worked with and edited for a number of well known writers of erotica. Some of the better known writers I've worked with over the years include: aroslav and EzzyB (currently), the_scribbler, Strickland83, Gina Marie Wylie, Warlord, El Sol, and Don Lockwood, among many others.

Prefers:
Romance, Coming of Age, School/College, Incest, Slow, Genre-type stories (ie: Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Time Travel, Historical, etc.)

Comments:
I generally prefer doing developmental or story/"big picture" editing more than I do doing basic copyediting/proofreading for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. Of course I'll correct those things where I find them, but my preference is to focus my editing energy on your overall story, looking at its plot, flow, continuity, character development, pacing, readability, and other such issues. If necessary I can also do the proofreading, but I also know of a number of excellent proofreaders and copyeditors that I've often worked with who may be willing to take on another author. As a rule, another set of eyes during editing/proofreading passes is always good! I'm comfortable editing both British and Australian English and general usage, however may not be fluent in slang or expressions. I also have extensive knowledge of sailing and nautical subjects, including off-shore and long-distance sailing. I have a knowledge of flying private planes / light aircraft, and an extensive knowledge of ambulances/EMS/emergency rooms/paramedicine in the US.

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.

I am currently editing for two SoL writers. 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!
