Miya’s Alpha Reading Service

Hello, hello! After months on break, I am finally reopening my fiction service, but this time, just the alpha reading one and none of the more rigorous book editing.

I used to host my service on Fiverr, where I offered three levels of review and editing. It was fine and all, but the 20% fee that Fiverr would take, plus the occasional rude messages from buyers trying to lower my already very low prices, made me put the service on-hold and rethink how I go about it.

This time, I’ll be hosting my service on Ko-fi Commissions, where the fees are lower. I also decided to make the listing much simpler:

I will alpha read any story, with a maximum of 2k words, for only $5.

Since I’m just starting out, the price is quite low. I may increase that price in the future or lower the word count limit, but for now, take advantage that it’s only $5!

I also offer a Reader Report add-on at only $3. The Reader Report is a separate document, of at least one page, where I summarize the strengths and weaknesses of your story. This will come in a PDF.

I will be working on your story in Zoho Writer because I find their review features a lot more stable than in MS Word. I can also work in Google Docs, but only upon request (more info under the cut).

You can find the full terms and conditions of this service on my blog page:

https://miyamiwu.tumblr.com/alpha-reading-terms

If you’re on the mobile app and the link above doesn’t work, please copy and paste the link in your browser instead.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! You can also email me at [email protected]

Update: I just a made a page for this on my blog. Same info as above but with a little more. Check it out here:

https://miyamiwu.tumblr.com/alpha-reading

If working in GDocs:

Indicate in the Ko-fi form that you want the work to be in GDocs.

You will still have to upload a DOC/ DOCX file in the Ko-fi form. I’m not gonna work on the same GDocs file you own.

I will convert the DOC / DOCX file into a GDocs file that I own.

When I’m done, I’ll transfer ownership of the GDocs file to you.

After confirming that you can access the file, I will forfeit my access to the document. I won’t entertain any follow-up questions in the comments.

You also acknowledge that by working in GDocs, the final output you receive is only the Google Docs file. No more DOCX and PDF.

Hien & Benichidori compilation

Okay so I put a & but this absolutely a shippy post, the hienichidori community is quiet af and there is no discourse but their comics in their Adventurer’s Bible profiles…!!! Many may ask, does Benichidori canonically have a crush on Hien?! Straightforward answer: It’s left heavily implied but yes. Alternate answer: If the framing of Falin in an explosion as Toshiro says that he loves her isn’t meant to associate the explosion with falling in love when it is mirrored in the next page, then… I think it’s a mix of both, I don’t think just this is true because Hien wouldn’t know who Shuro is talking about or even what Falin looks like, but it could be that the explosion is instead meant to show a world vision being shaken, the thing blowing you away. So for Hien, having Shuro say that breaks this unsaid assumption she’s always had that they might end up together, and thus Falin is taken like an explosion to the face. Similarly, for someone with facial dysmorphia and for who appearances and being subservient are everything, having Hien be confident and totally assume her plain looks, even uplifting herself, that also shakes her world like a bomb. And yes it’s not just about the makeup!! Benichidori’s drawn to her confidence, to her unapologetic attitude, to her attitude. Benichidori unexpectedly snapped at Hien too, but she was totally unshaken and she replied casually and lightheartedly even then; Benichidori saying she can be herself with Hien is about Hien not caring about her mask, both her makeup and her subdued demeanor. Hien is canonically special to Benichidori.

And on the note of that comic, I took a picture from my Adventurer’s Bible for this but I think the fantranslations I’ve seen are lovely too, really gets across all the meaning of the original sentence… Where Benichidori said "She was the only one I could be my unadorned self in front of" (which is my fave) or "I’m able to act my honest self with her". Benichidori having body(more specifically facial) dysmorphia is explicitly stated in the Adventurer’s Bible btw.

Pleasee how Hien’s extra is her talking about her life story and Toshiro to Benichidori… How Hien says "That guy is blind!" and Benichidori says "I’ve noticed that 😊" as if saying that Toshiro is blind to what a catch Hien is… Also in the ninja girls’ shared inn room Benichidori puts her futon next to Hien’s bed.

#Dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #hien #benichidori #hienichidori #Hienbeni #Nakamatsu would also be cute #Hien x benichidori #Benichidori x hien #I would make this part of my rarepair series but they don’t need it they already have interest + i don’t have much to write #Hope this can boost them in the ship tourney… The Flokes are a worthy adversary #dunmeshi rarepairs #Sorryyy some of them are blurrier… As always #Will add more if I find more #That one hienichidori fic on ao3… Thank u for ur service you 100% see the vision #I don’t even think Hien truly crushed on Toshiro but the unrequited angst from benichidori’s pov is also very tasty #they have sm potential #Hienidori as a nickname #Benihien #Rarepair spotlight #Benichihien #Incredible that Benichidori could find such a positive bond in such an hostile environment tbh

thinking about trying to do rangeland firefighting for at least one summer while I’m still in my 20s with derangements that make me love toiling like a medieval peasant but in order to do it next summer I would need to undergo a second, less illegal and contentious but some would say more difficult transition with my body. theatre kid to jock

#it would be such a cool experience but as you can imagine you need to meet a fitness requirement so the fires don’t destroy you etc etc #classic fire behavior but anyway you need to be able to walk 3 miles with a 45 pound pack in 45 minutes #it’s a test given by the forest service #however there are also a few other guidelines which are: #-can run 1.5 miles in 10 minutes 30 seconds #-can do 25 push ups #-can do 40 sit-ups #-can do 7 pull ups #easy for anyone who played footed ball in high school but unfortunately I was too busy not lifting things up and putting them down #but now I’m like. perhaps I could also pick heavy things up and put them down

not me thinking about how dh’s wet little dragon boy instincts might look into any gifts that you give him and see them as courting gifts. no sir.

#yandere x reader #yandere dan heng x reader #yandere dan heng #dan heng x reader #even better if s/o’s live language is service. #and EVEN better is the fact that they’ve either told him or he knows them well enough to recognize that #Plus his love language is also service! How lucky s/o is~ #Don’t worry about those things called taxes! You have the express! And a dragon who will not let you stop being a nameless :D #You think that he doesn’t need to repay you for such gifts? Pssssh. #Guess who would give you his horns and tail and scales for you! #Nooooo that’s not a warning sign! Thats a sign of looooove.

Something about a Pygmalion take on Jaceporter is so appealing to me… in that way that Porter reveres power and domination… the tension between his desire to seek out and keep a Jace as a perfect spineless compliant lackey vs a need to remake Jace in the image of someone who is powerful and dominant and assertive. Jace that is complacent and cowardly and passive is a Jace he can use and control but never respect, and he loves what that Jace can do FOR him. But as Jace is transformed by rage, a Jace who is furious and oppositional and autonomous and actualized and powerful and is able to stand in the face of Porter and tell him he cannot stay even if it means death is a Jace he can respect and maybe even admire but no longer control. In the same way Henry Higgins cannot truly make a Lady until she has outgrown him, (“Eliza you’re magnificent. 5 minutes ago you were a millstone around my neck and now you’re a tower of strength. A consort battleship. I like you this way Eliza” “goodbye professor Higgins”). Because conflict is at the heart of war, Porter cannot truly anoint a Saint of the God of War until Jace has outgrown him.

#starbreaker #fhjy spoilers #shut up Janelle #jace stardiamond #porter cliffbreaker #dimension 20 #fantasy high #alas. it can never be. #statterstar Jace and his impotent rage is SUCH a compelling paradox for me #like. what is more appealing (hot) to a god of war? #someone you can have real tiffs with because you just genuinely have opposing philosophies. they are autonomous but weak (in your eyes) #or someone who is rageful just as you like it. but is under your control. all their opposition is lip service. their conflict with you is #is hollow #in what way are you willing to let your following be a reflection of you #something something like. I love Jace enough to actualize him. vs. I need him to be dependent on me for The Plan #ALSO I KNOW TBE QUOTE IS MY FAIR LADY BUT. I don’t like MFL that much bc of the happy ending #I #I love shatterstarred Jace bc he is schrodinger’s little freak <3 #the patron saint of the god of war was always doomed to be a martyr

Did you see the part where Meg was annoyed that only dogs can be qualified to be service medical dogs? lol guess she's mad a bird can't be a service cardic arrest animal. Once again pulled up the "people think only DOGS can be trained to do this!!! How dare they!!!" *grumbling about mammalian bias* argument. I'm sorry Meg but your fucking bird or a rabbit cannot be a service animal for the blind or anything that dogs have be bred to do

me when they won’t let my service crocodile into Walmart:

#Dogs are favored because they have been domesticated for thousands of years and selectively bred for extremely specific behaviors #they also have heightened hearing and smell that can allow them to detect certain medical emergencies early #and because a dog can be predictably trained to not attack someone #yes you can train a Komodo dragon to perform a lot of what is asked of dogs #but as a wild animal guess what #they are more likely to attack someone because they are more likely to perceive normal human behavior as a threat #and even domesticated non-mammals just generally aren’t built for a lot of what a service animal needs #what would a service pigeon do for you exactly #and even if it could do something to help you it’s still a pigeon and if you take it outside there is a very present chance #of a hawk plucking it off your shoulder as dinner #generally don’t need to worry about a golden retriever being carried away by eagles #not to mention dogs being able to be potty trained which. Many animals cannot reliably be #even rodents and other small mammals can’t generally since they don’t have voluntary bladder control

I know some of you on here are actually bold enough to talk like this bc i’ve seen it but uh here’s an unfriendly reminder that you don’t know any of the boys and definitely could NEVER know what they struggle with/if they need an emotional support or service animal?? and if you think you’ve “gained enough knowledge” from following the band as a fan to speak on that kind of topic as confidently as this bitch you are seriously unhinged and need to log off. in the end the entirety of gvf are strangers to you and you don’t know a single thing they struggle with unless they open up about it?? it’s as simple as that??? and someone’s disabilities/illnesses/struggles aren’t even a debate topic like please shut the fuck up or die

#how fucking disgusting……..????? #also reasons to have an emotional support animal you can’t VISIBLY SEE????????? #you don’t KNOW sam it doesn’t make you quirky and edgy to say rosie isn’t emotional support or an actual service dog you literally don’t #know????? there is no possible way you know #block me if you talk like this lmao bc I think you’re fucking stupid #sam kiszka #idc how you feel about sam as a person that’s not my business but speaking for people who need emotional support animals?????? stfu

Imagine if Kuukou did become a vtuber. We all know Ichiro would be a fan of vtubers. One day, Ichiro is looking around looking for a vtuber to watch, and he finds one who seems familiar? He clicks on it to hear Kuukou's voice and how Kuukou is trying to convince people to donate to him so he can create the metaverse temple. Of course, after that, Ichiro becomes his number one supporter (and some anonymous person who might or might not be Hitoya)

lol kuukou’s vtuber experience trying to get his metaverse hub world up and running will probably go like

‘chat, imma be real with y’all, i don’t know what the hell i’m supposed to do with this’

#vee got an ask #hitoya gave the funds for the 3d temple to watch kuukou flail lmao #i can’t remember what it was called but there was a jp metaverse app that allowed celebrities to host their own events #hayama-san and shiraimu did one together where their avatars traversed the metaverse alongside their viewers’ avatars #it was fun lol and there was also the shonen jump events that went on during covid #where they had their hub world and you could control your generic character to see the various metaverse exhibits #so kuukou is def cooking lol!!!!!!!! he needs his temple in 3d and needs a livestream space where he can just livestream his sermon #have in metaverse events for those festivals he occasionally throws but people don’t wanna/can’t come out to #IDK THAT MUCH PROGRAMMING BUT WHATEVER YOU WANT KUUKOU I WILL GLADLY VOLUNTEER MY SERVICES LOL #c: kuukou👑

I keep trying to write an update and then being embarrassed about it and feeling like I’m trauma dumping on people by updating and I just..I know it’s on me to manage my crap, I know. I am trying (not very well but I’m trying) and it’s just…I don’t know. I don’t even know.

#please know i have thought about hospital but hospital would #genuinely make it worse (like I cannot even tell you how much worse) #i think I’m legitimately just…having a trauma reaction on top #of a jewish trauma spike #and dentists and having to move (I may have cleaned till I shook today also my arm #does not look great #i feel like i don’t actually verbally have the words #(i have tried not engaging i have tried engaging they both feel awful) #(hashem i don’t know would you even embrace me would you…) #(it’s not a meds thing (I take meds for mdd and I know what that looks like and this isn’t it) #(it’s hard to explain the difference between CPTSD and like a panic attack or a depression) #(except that I feel like I’m so so tainted and not in my body or if I’m in my body I’m in my body somewhere else #abuse cw #i didn’t ask for this cptsd and no tshirt was offered #this will disappear probably #UGH #(i am seeing my therapist tomorrow i just..i know i need to reach out to) #(to like my current landlords and ask if I could just pay for a cleaning service to come in) #(i know i need to be like ‘unfortunately my CPTSD is Fucking Terrible Right Now and I need) #(just a bit of grace apologies) #(i do not want my parents to know i do not want that) #(aside from the fact that I am already a burden to them anyway) #a stupid flop of a person i am crying thinking about how i had plans for kids and a wife and travel and…I’m nothing #(everyone else is something I’m not I don’t deserve grace lbr) #it keeps running through my head how many people i thought loved me want me dead #and it’s like I can fake it so well #(i don’t know I may be like sending words to people) #to run through the steps of not being alone #i’m truly sorry i am always not taking accountability and playing the victim and clinging to people #to get reassurance i don’t deserve that its a good person it isn’t it isn’t a person

my summer vacation is gonna be WILDDDDD this year oh my god. First I have 2 week and a half long vacations with my dad because my brother is getting married. THEN. I’m going on a cruise with my mom and THEN at the end of summer I’m getting knee surgery because apparently I have like 3 different somewhat serious conditions going on all at once IN 1 SINGLE KNEE what the HELL MAN 😭😭😭

anyways yeah art is probably gonna be slowing down a LOT over summer and I don’t think I’ll be able to participate in artfight this year. Maybe a little but if I do then I’m gonna be focusing on close friends only really LMFAO

#Yeah #so about my knee #APPARENTLY #i have a displaced kneecap. Joint dysplasia. AND hypertension caused by the displaced kneecap which means I’m gonna be needing knee surgery #Me when my genetics are FUCKED WAAAAAAAH #I’m also gonna be volunteering at a marine center for some extra service hours for school at the beginning of summer so yeah my summer #Is gonna have no room for art LMAOOOOO #I’ll try to do a good chunk of stuff though so :3! #I got a bunch of projects planned and I’ll probably slowly work on those as summer goes on #And artfight I’ll just have to find room through my vacations! #I shouldn’t be TOO inactive but I know I will be after I get surgery so yeah! I’m gonna get as much work done in advance so I’ll have stuff #To post throughout summer :3! #Anyways yeah was just feeling silly and wanted to talk I’m relatively okay and I’m not in too much pain rn as I just got my knee brace in s #Yall don’t gotta worry about me too much HEHEHE #Anyways thank you for coming to my ted talk I got a psychiatrist appointment tomorrow so bye bye :3 #Cro chatter

the venn diagram of people who think every member of the IDF is a bloodthirsty sociopathic killing machine and people who think US veterans should be left to die on the street at Penance For Their Sins is a perfect circle

#i dont know how else to explain it #all militaries are the same #they find young people who need their basic needs met and exploit them #they chew you up and spit you out and do not care if you live or die #IDF service is compulsory and avoidance of service is punishable by a potentially VERY lengthy prison sentence #maybe cut the Jews with generational trauma who don’t want to be imprisoned some slack? #just a thought

The seasonal depression + major life stress to agoraphobia relapse pipeline is kicking my ass

#the adhd & demand avoidance don’t help any either #I end up wanting to avoid responsibilities out of spite and bc I’m time blind I don’t even notice how many days I’ve gone without leaving #the house #by the time you add the actual depression and anxiety and trauma I’m already struggling #it’s gotten so hard to go to shabbat services on friday nights bc it’s dark at 4:30 and the temple is in the middle of downtown #in not the safest area and there’s almost no parking #(to be clear it’s not just anxiety or fear preventing me from going. it’s hard to want to go anywhere when it’s dark and cold for normal #human reasons) #but still #i hate being in a position where I feel like I have to assume the worst of other human beings #bc that’s just. not who I am. its incongruent with who I am to walk down the street and assume people are bad and want to hurt me #that’s not a judgement I’d ever want to make lightly #even if I’ve also always been hypervigilant (it’s complicated ig) #(really feel like my nervous system has just not been able to fully stabilize for the past six weeks. it’s already such a hard time of year #for me and with recent events on top of that…) #anyway.

I hate you modern aesthetic I hate you monochrome I hate you rose gold I hate you painting kids’ toys to be joyless I hate you soulless white kitchens I hate you stainless steel I hate you exposed framing I hate you pristine white sofas I hate you parents who force their children to live in environments with no colour I hate you organised houses I hate you echoey houses I hate you perfectly cut emerald grass I hate you biscuit cutter houses I hate you conformity I hate you modern aesthetic I hate you modern aesthetic I hate you modern aesthetic I hate you modern aesthetic !!

#MAKE IT STOP #I WANT COLOUR #I want lived in houses !! #I want to trip over dolls and have blankets all over and have a painted kitchens I love you homely homes #I want to hear laughter and see footprints and little height markers on door frames I want to see that splatter on the ceiling #from when grandma dropped that pot of spaghetti I NEED to see signs of life and happiness and love #If I don’t see a thriving household with toys on the floor and chew marks on the furniture and dents in the walls and dishes in the sink #I AM GOING TO COMBUST #This aesthetic is the definition of soulless! A terrible threat to humanity! It needs to be eradicated immediately!! I directly attribute #how rude people are nowadays to the stark and complete lack of colour and soul in stores and jokes alike! #Whoever thought of this so called aesthetic is the devil’s best pawn!! #If I see one more house with children especially drowned in white and black I’m calling every child protective service imaginable #Few things boil my blood more than a parent forcing their child to live in such a horrid non stimulating cold freakishly clean environment #If I can hear my quiet breathing in your house #It needs to be cleansed if it’s modern aesthetic sin and injected with the borderline holy rays of WARM #Yes I did just watch a HORRIBLE VILE TERRIBLE video of some trendy yummy mummy painting her child’s lovely lavender play kitchen #BLOODY BLACK AND WHITE #to make it match her aesthetic! #what the fuck!!

Just a Friendly Reminder for those who don’t interact with nature often (and those who do but might need the reminder)

Most people tend to live in a world of luxuries and comforts very separate from the wilderness and with modern technology it gets downplayed as less dangerous. But it takes 2 seconds for a “quick run up the ridge line” to because a six day SAR run. I’ve seen it with tourists in my area, I’ve seen it abroad, I’ve heard scathing comment about being ‘over prepared’ when the subject was basic preparedness for a 10 mile hike.

The weather is going to get warm soon, people are going to go out and that’s good! Go to your local parks, the wilderness centers, take a hike! But do it with respect and don’t get cocky because Mother Nature will slap you down, chew you up, and you will be lucky if she spits your bones out somewhere that humanity will find you.

#psa #‘we are going to stop for a coffee at the top #‘we don’t need all that water’ #like- ma’am. there is no coffee shop at the top of the trail #it is a 6 mile hike one way. there is no cell service. you need a bottle of water #there. is. no. cafe. #hiking
