I would be willing to participate in this! I'm pretty good at catching spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes! :)

Sorry. I'll read yours and post mine ASAP!

Sounds like a good idea :)I have a story that mainly needs critiquing, as I've gone through and done most of the editing.
I have got quite a long story, like 90 000 words long. Anyone want to help me? It is only on my computer though. I will help in return, of course :)

Do you want me to send the book by email? Then you can do the same?
I'm still writing my story , but I'm interested in trading at some point when I get my story finished.








Here is a topic where you can talk to others-set up an agreement. "If you edit my story, I'll edit yours" kind of thing.
Here's how I envision it:
P1: I have a story that needs editing and critiquing.
P2: So do I! Let's swap.
P1: Great, I'll make a topic!
------P1 makes topic with their names or story titles
P1: Posts story
P2: Posts story
Then they chat about each others work, make suggestions and improve grammar.
Does this make sense? I'm terrible at explaining things.
