Hi, all! I'm training to be an editor, and I could really use some extra practice. Does anyone need any editing and story advice? Feel free to hit me up. I write a lot of Gundam Wing fan fics, but I'll be happy to look at stories from any series... I may not be able to give you in-depth character advice if it's from an anime I'm unfamiliar with, but I can help with the flow and tone of the story itself, along with the usual grammar and punctuation stuff. ^_^

Okay, here's my obligatory list of qualifications: I have lots of writing and editing experience, and am a college senior poised to earn my writing degree. Next year I'll be going for a master's in editing and publishing. Writing is my life, and editing is my passion. My mother teases me that I was born with a red pen in my hand, and I was nicknamed the "Grammar Nazi" on my college newspaper. So please, help me help you! I'm practically begging here, and it's pretty lame... so give me projects! I'll help you with your writing in every way I can.

so_so_sad: You can email me whatever you're working on and I'll get started as soon as I can. Also, let me know if you have any deadlines you'd like to meet. And hey, are you really from Portugal? Because I'm part-Portuguese; my grandmother's family is from Lisbon. ^_^

No I?m not really from Portugal but I was in Portugal with my mum, she's is married to a Portuguese man, we got back two days ago. I was so bummed when Portugal didn't make it to the world cup. But here, you can appreciate this. I did meet a Portuguese man who looked exactly like Heero, and we are keeping in contact.

I was writing a story for the lost challenge but I think it?s gotten off track, in a good way. :razz:

You'll see it soon.

Wee! Yay for real-life Heero Yuys! *hugs her own*

Nuzack: Ow. Stop squeezing so hard.
Aeris: Wanna come kill me sometime?
Nuzack: *Sigh* Would you quit with the Heero crap already? I thought when we met you said I reminded you of Trowa?
Aeris: I said you sounded like Trowa... There's a difference!
Nuzack: Right... *mimes shooting himself in the head*

^_^ Well, I look forward to reading your story. Many of mine have gotten off track too, so maybe you want to help beta one of mine?
