Hi! If you’re ever recruiting for proofreaders, i can help. I’m quite good at it. It also helps that i love mangas so you can say it’ll be dream job. Thanks!
I’m free to be a proofreader, though I’ll usually do my work during the weekends and Friday’s due to school.
You can contact me about this via my tumblr, @chattonic, or my email.
