In need of an editor

Reader Became Writer 🚫

I begin by apologizing, since I have no way to pay for services. If I manage to monetize the story in the future, however, I don't mind sharing what I get.
My novel has 127,000 words, it is not exactly short, and it will only get bigger since it will be long, very long, depending only on my desire to write.
It is an erotic novel of a boy getting involved with several different women, called "God of Love". The story is about a boy who lost his mother, who controlled his life, and finds himself in a moment where he has so much freedom that he doesn't quite know what to do with it. The story has elements of high fantasy and gamelit.
Anyone interested, answer the post, or send a message to my email.

You may want to do a lot of it yourself.

Myself, editing is still one of my biggest issues. And one thing I am grateful for is that I have several helpful readers in here that go over my work and send me corrections.

In the last few months, I have started to get much more careful in going over my own work again. And since I tend to post a chapter at a time, I have fallen into the following routine.

I "bank" 2-4 chapters before I post one. Then when I am ready to add a chapter, I go through it again, trying to catch all I can. Then I feed it through Grammarly (a free site), and go through it a second time.

I then go back over it yet a third time, making any final changes before uploading it. I have seen my error count drop from an average of 15 or so per chapter, to now maybe 1 per chapter on average (most now I get no negative feedback, but then I got one listing 3 in a single one).

I also go through a similar process, I also use grammarly. The problem is that English is not my mother tongue, I still live in Brazil so I don't absorb English daily as I should. I don't think my novel has many errors to start with, as I said, I review it several times, but as I had a complaint, and I'm not a native, I thought of getting someone to help, at least as a proofreader.

It's been a while since I did much editing, but we could discuss it if you still need help.
