    alright /lit/, it's been a long time since I last did this....

    But, editor-on-call thread. Send something to ftwlit@gmail.com, and I'll give you feedback within a day or so. No trollfic, but I've got no page limits.

    I'll critique and line-edit the first two pieces I recieve, but after that you're on your own

    I haven't got anything recent, but I can send you this creative piece I wrote for the area of study of belonging when I was in high school.

    I got 100%, so it would be interesting to see what you think of it.

    >>502774
    hmmm, alright. This should be interesting...

    Just remember that I'll be looking at structure, I can't really critique by genre

    No problem. The word limit was 800 so it's pretty choppy. Give me any feedback. I handle critique very well.

    Just keep in mind it was written for the concept of belonging.

    I'll email it now.

    Are you sure that email address is correct? The email I just tried to send failed.

    Email sent. It's a short poem, shouldn't be too much work for ya. Thanks in advance!

    alright, just a heads-up that I've now recieved two pieces of writing and won't be taking any more. Looks good overall

    Wait, scratch that. I just read over the edits and they seem a bit - mindless. What exactly are your qualifications, OP?

    Also, you fucked up one of the lays/lies - only one needed changing.

    Did you take the 1000 word creative writing piece?

    I don't need a personal army, folks.

    Yeah, I was unsure about the second lay/lies alteration. The poem itself seemed fine, It was more of a perception issue really. Feel free to ignore anything that seems stupid to you.

    >>503064
    yes, I did. Just sent out my reply

    Thanks Jonah! Most of your comments were correct, but some parts I feel the repetition you said to change was to add effect.

    Again, you analyzed based on structure, not technique.
    >> Prole !XDERDXUpqQ 04/01/10(Thu)15:13 No.503175

    fair enough,I'm a little critical of indvidual paragraphs as opposed to the whole.
    glad you appreciated the criticism

    alright, I've got some time on my hands so I'm willing to do another . Bumping for interest
    >> Anonymous 04/01/10(Thu)20:13 No.504170
    Prole, do you ever do this for Zine submissions or is it just editing and out?
    >> Prole !XDERDXUpqQ 04/01/10(Thu)20:15 No.504173
    >>504170
    Only on request. I don't wanna scare away applicants who think I'm gonna dissect their work. And, I probably don't have time to do die-hard critiques of every piece
    >> Anonymous 04/01/10(Thu)20:19 No.504183
    >>504173
    Say I set in a submission and asked for some feedback, but nothing in-depth, just a general feeling for the piece overall, how would I go about asking that in the email?
    >> Prole !XDERDXUpqQ 04/01/10(Thu)20:24 No.504203
    >>504183
    hmmm....
    I usually deal with poetry, horror, and technical.

    However if you were to specifically ask for Prole to look over your work, I'd give you a line-edit. If you don't like my crtiques, you can probably ask for Nick or Lindlar to look it over.

    does that help?

    no problem, just be sure to say how pretentious you want me to be.

    Can I email you something that I did for my creative writing in school?
    I've never written anything before, but I was quite happy with it. I've never written anything since actually.
    I don't know what grade it got, but for the whole course I got a B.

    sure, I'm alright with that. Send away
