A temp account since my old one isn't currently working due to Baka-Tsuki's disfunctioning/corrupted 'simple' skin.
Currently edit writing "Tate no Yuusha."
1st Revision: Correct spelling/grammar error and faulty sentence structures. Emphasis on retaining original translation's literal meaning as much as possible. Takes about 2 1/2 - 4 hours depending on chapter length.
2nd Revision: Focus on story flow, making paragraphs/dialogue less choppy and more enjoyable to read without having it become a chore. Takes about 2 - 3 hours depending on chapter length.
3rd Revision: ????? [getting story closer to print publishing quality]
Won't bother doing for multiple reasons.
(#1) I do enough work on this story series as it is.
(#2) Baka-Tsuki's version is more of a speed release, aka "Quantity over Quality."
(#3) Don't have a firm grasp of how this series is written in its original language. In other words, more of my own writing style will bleed over into the editing process should I attempt a full english conversion.
(#4) Don't feel like it~ Let other lazy leeches out there pick up the slack.
My main goal right now is to finish proofing the first volume at least. We'll see how motivated I am about this story after that.
