I'm currently writing something like "Foundation" by Isaac Asimov, in a steampunk-like setting.

Hello! I haven't been posting much here, just looking around at some interesting ones....
I was wondering where I could publish short stories (original) or get good editors to edit them? So far, my english teacher has edited it. However, I would like more people to edit them.
Maybe one of you guys could do it? I promise it won't be that bad (I hope). -

If you're still looking for somewhere to post original works, there's Fiction Press - a sister site to FF.net that's for original writing. I expect LiveJournal and other similar places would also be suitable.
I may also be able to do some editing for you, out of interest, what sort of genres do you write? I'm mostly into sci-fi and fantasy myself, so I'll be able to offer more input on those.
If you want to send your stuff through for me to look at, my e-mail address is samurai_ireland@hotmail.com -

That sounds very cool, I'd definitely be up for reading something like that.
If you want to send something through for me to comment on, go ahead. -

Any type, really. One that can edit and give me suggestions on how to improve would be nice, though.

Well, anyone here could do it, we're a community of avid readers and writers, but I could see what I can do. :P I've actually been trying to get a freelance editing business started up, and I'd be glad to discuss it over e-mail or something - my address is in the link on my name.
(Don't be scared off by that though, I'd be happy to look it over for free too, practise is good. :P) -

I think I'll take your offer of doing it for free (I don't have a credit card/money/bitcoins/etc)
