    Beta Reader/Editor/Writing Advice Available

    Hello, Erik here. I've been lurking on these boards for years, and I think it's high time for me to say hello and actually post something. As the archive needs some help to get going again, this makes it the perfect time. I'd like to offer my services as an editor, beta reader, or general advice-giver for anyone writing a story for the archive. I've been writing and editing for nearly two decades now, so come take advantage of that if you like. I have also some medical background and general knowledge on a plethora of subjects, including historical eunuchs, so I will definitely help there.

    In case I don't get your message on the board, feel free to email me at stemdectristar at gmail {dot} com.

    I can't say as there is anything I won't read, but I will warn that if you ask for my opinion as to what I think of your story (as opposed to just having it edited) I will give it you. I don't tend to sugarcoat anything. I particularly favour stories wherein a man (or male-born lady) loses his/her penis either involuntarily, or voluntarily but quickly comes to regret it (or similar featuring a lady and her clitoris) but I won't restrict my help to merely those.

    You know, I realised just now that we have many stories of men and transwomen losing their penises (I do appreciate that transwomen often like them called clits but do bear with me as you will see in a moment that this is an important clarification) and of women losing their clitorises, but none of the inverse wherein a transman loses his clitoris. That would be a very interesting story indeed--does anyone know of one that perhaps I missed?

    Anyway, pardoning the tangent, I am from Canada and familiar with both British and American English (I use British myself but have edited both) and I am willing to edit/read/otherwise help with any subject matter or length. At the moment, and for the summer months, I have nothing but time so now is the time to contact me if you would like help or comments.

    I'd love to help you out, but I can't send messages on the boards. Email me at stemdectristar at gmail dot com and I will very much help you any way I can.

    You've now hit 5 posts on the boards, and you will find that you can now send PM's.

    The 5 post requirement is there to allow you to get familiar with the archive, before you start messaging.

    You are now free to message all you like.

    New eunuch stories can be submitted to eafictionarchive (at) gmail (dot) com

    Ah, so ironically, a post that I made saying I couldn't get or receive messages was the very thing that allowed me to get and receive messages. Very fun!

    But I think he might not be able to receive them? Someone said they'd sent me a message before I had the five post count and I couldn't get them. Was that a fluke, or is it disabled for both ways?

    The only limitation is to post five times before being able to send a PM, not receive one
