    I really, really, really need someone, preferably someone who's not familiar with my fandom, to read over a piece for me and help me trim some things down. It's for a writing contest at my college, so please PM me if you're interested so I can send you the oneshot. Nevermind, I already submitted it. Thanks for nothing, Mibba.

    Hello!
    I am currently writing a story called The Wicked War, and I have about 10,000 words typed out already and I was wondering if there was anyone who would be willing to read, edit and offer notes. (Notes will be offered like this, in brackets when the wording seems weird or just doesn't quite sound right.) I'm not looking for suggestions, just looking for someone to tell me when the writing is off or there could be a different word used.
    We could edit it in chunks or as a whole, it's up to you. Now a bit about my story.

    As far as it stands, the story has a low reading, but when I get further in, the rating will go up. The story is a fantasy/war romance. Please message me or comment on my profile if you are interested. Also, if you would like, you can read a bit of the story that is already on Mibba via my profile.

    I need someone to edit a oneshot. I'm almost done with it. It's rated PG-13 for swearing, but other than that it's a fluffy Bromance oneshot. It is fan fiction (Liam Payne/Louis Tomlinson) and it is not slash. My final oneshot should be about 1,500 words, give or take a few hundred.

    Hi guys!!

    I need someone who can go over all my edits and make sure that I didn't ruin anything in the process. The story is Lethal Silence, which despite it's short amount is coming along nicely on my computer. I just need to put chapters together and whatnot. My thing is my spelling. I'm a horrible speller and depend on google/my mom/MS word's dictionary. But apparently I always seem to have a few words misspelled and can't seem to find them. Can someone please help? All the love for you if you do <3

    Hi everyone!
    I need someone who can proofread my chapters for my upcoming story The Mommy Diaries.
    I think I'm an okay speller, I just have problems with grammar and whatnot. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me out.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey!
    I really need someone to help me with a story here, it's a one shot for a contest and I want to make sure it's error free before submitting. English is not my mother tongue, so I get quite insecure about mistakes. I need this before the 30th. Please. PM me.

    Hey, I need someone to check over my narrative for an original fiction. Because for some reason, I keep messing up my past/present tense and it is just one big mess right now. Obviously I won't be sending you the entirety of what I've written, instead I'll probably send you 2 or 3 word pages in hopes that realizing what exactly I'm doing wrong will help me improve. I have a brain fart involving tenses like every months or so and gahh, it is so horrible.

    * I've posted the excerpt as "fksldjflsjl Untitled Excerpt" Ahaha.

    Helped now. I couldn't figure out the strike through code...

    Hey, I would really like to have someone edit over my story The Key Chased the Blade. It's a slightly paranormal mystery and is finished, but not yet fully posted, and is pretty long, so I need someone who can handle along commitment. Basically the story is about two teenage kids (best friends since forever) who start investigating a murder, but end up getting pulled into it through the forewarnings of a banshee ghost. My main problems are pacing and syntax, and I really need help on plot development.

    I don't want any sugar coating, but I don't want someone to be mean either. xD If something is absolutely ridiculous in my story, I don't want a joke made out of it (however harmless your intentions are) those kind of things hurt my ego. xD (I know, I'm pretty thin-skinned.) Anyway, PM me if you're interested. We can work something out.

    I'm looking to rewrite all of my stories, and I need someone to proofread and also be a beta. It would be for a long haul. I'm not too good with the flow of things and I need someone to spot errors that I didn't originally spot. Also to give me criticism. To tell me their opinion.

    If anyone is interested please PM me.


    Found someone, thank you! :)

    I need someone to be the general and overall beta for my new story (and maybe some other pieces if theyre interested). I need someone good with punctuation because I get very hyphen and semi-colon happy and I know most of it is wrong. Also someone who is good with tenses. I tend to changwn half way through a line a paragraph without noticing and when I go back for edits it sounds right to me (maybe because I talk weird?). There shouldnt be too much basic spelling and grammar mistakes, but it happens once you get writing.

    If I still have your attention the main story is a vampfic, NC-17; gore, violence, torture, sex (con and possibly noncon), and all that other good stuff. It starts off pretty soft but with the way its going it'll be darker a couple chapters in.

    PM me if interested.

    I need someone who's willing to fix my typos in my story The Demons Come Out at Night I don't always catch them and after over 500 words or so, it's hard for me to edit through because of all the work. If anyone is willing to correct typos, message me and I'll try to figure out how to add you as an editor! I don't need grammar or help with other things. Just to check and correct typos. I don't like having how I write changed and stuff like that, unless of course it's just typos I didn't see.

    Hello *waves* Im looking for a proofreader/editor for my story
    Never Let You Go
    it's a fanfiction featuring the band Pierce The Veil (knowledge of the band would be obviously a lot helpful and almost essential, because you may not understand some things in the story otherwise) I could do with someone to check for spelling, grammar mistakes or if sentences don't make sense, and also if I may have missed out words as I do that a lot. PM me if you can help.

    I'm looking for a beta to give me a hand on my story "One Bad Day" It's a Jack Napier story based on how he comes about being The Joker. I've just had a very dry spell; it's probably been about two years since I've actually sat down and written something of worth.

    I'm in need of someone to make sure the stories on the right track, so ideally I need someone to help proofread and edit, as well as pointing out any possible plot holes, flaws, out of character writing, etc. This is ideal for someone who loves Joker stories that don't follow the cliche or norm!

    Ideally, I'd like to make contact through email and word, as that's what I use and am a fan of their editing programs because they're simple and straightforward, and very clear. If not through word, then at least through email so that all changes may be made clearly and obviously.

    Thanks in advance! Very Happy

    I'm a bit unsure of where to go, as I haven't been here in awhile. Anyhow:

    I haven't written in good long time, but it's summer again and I've started re-writing an old story of mine. Currently, I'm about 2000 words in. Right now it's basically about a moody girl who's going through a breakup and a move to a different part of the country, and I've so far written a very emotionally tense goodbye scene. That was somewhat sarcastic and I hate describing my writing so I'll just stop. I'd like someone to look at just to see if it makes any sense whatsoever? I can PM or email the text to you if you please. Mr. Green
