Copy Editor !WANTED!
Dead or alive!
Much better alive...
So, as you perhaps know we (Lord Zsezse Works) are a small team (two people) and we are working in Hungary (here).
It means that English is our second (and third) language and it doesn’t let us to write on as high level as we would like to our products. This is why we are looking for Copy Editor/s.
We have two fans who sometimes check our scripts in their free times, but after an 8 (or more) hours job it would be too much and when we have 2-4 projects/month they don't have enough time to help us.
How it works? We send you our first version of our translated script and next you get free hand. If you have got a new idea for the map or the story you can write to the background story or to the area description. Or you can just spellcheck and check the grammar instead of rewrite the whole text. We will send you sometimes script of e-mails that we would like to send our customers and we have an Indiegogo project for the new elven set that need a checking, too.
It means 1-3 sheets/projects. Deadline is about 1-7 days.
Example from a finished editing:
Original from us:
It’s a huge place with row of arcades in the middle. Big torches give the light from some stone keepers. After this place there are two doors. The right one is closed but the left one is broken. At the end of this place there is the gate. It’s floating over the deep from where heat break up. You can’t go to the gate at now; you need a bridge to do it.
Edited by Rich Crotty based upon the map that we sent him:(It's an example when he rewrote the whole script.
)
This is an enormous hall, with arches to both sides. To your left, several have crumbled and fallen to the paving stones. Bright ensorcelled flames warmly light sections of the room from braziers in stone alcoves. Ahead, there are two doors to either side of the chamber. The right one is closed but the left one is open and one of the doors lies on the floor.
Ahead, you see curved chunks of stone slowly rotating around each other. You get the feeling that this is the gate you’ve heard so much about. It floats above a deep pit, heat and flickering light flaring up from below. The magics of this place prevent any form of magical flight. Only a bridge would allow you to cross the room -- perhaps that bridge that you see below you?
What we can give you for that?
You will be the first who will know about our new plans and projects and your name will be on the first page of products as Copy Editor. You will get the copy of that product you edited for free of course. I know it doesn't so much but if you have any other idea please let us to know.
If you have got a writer vein, if you have some free time and you can reply us within a day, feel free to contact us here or you can do it also via Facebook www.facebook.com/lordzsezseworks
Thanks for reading!
