Novel Requests

I am open to requests for proofreading and copy editing. However, due to the time and effort involved, I do charge a fee. While I am happy to share a few novels for free, they are still in process, and I put no pressure on myself to complete them.

Each new novel I proofread and copyedit requires a significant investment of time and effort, often involving careful planning and organization. The pressure to meet deadlines while maintaining a high standard of quality will increase, especially since I have a regular job. I enjoy doing it, but I want to keep it enjoyable, so I will limit the number of commissions I take on at any given time.

I want to enjoy reading the story while I work on the English version. Therefore, the commissions I will accept must be in the Chinese fantasy genre, specifically Wuxia, Xianxia, Xuanhuan, Romance and Danmei (Boy's Love) genres, as well as Romance. I am more selective with Xuanhuan, Danmei and Romance. All novels must be set in Ancient China and must have a happy ending (no open endings, no bittersweet endings, no sad endings). Short and long definitions are available at the bottom of this page.

Here are my rates: 

• 1 Chapter: $5 (plus 1 free) - Delivery in 1 week max.
• 5 Chapters: $20 (plus 1 free) - Delivery in 2 weeks max.
• 10 Chapters: $45 (plus 1 free) - Delivery in 3 weeks max.
• It is possible to have more than 10 chapters, but the price and timeline will need to be discussed and negotiated.
