Hosted Games: They're copy-edited now?

Yes pretty sure most hosted games are the responsibility of the authors to get them into a fit state for publishing. Unfortunately the reality is that although many people would love to have a professional editor screen their work (myself included) when I looked into it, it appeared that it could end up costing me multiple times what the book was likely to earn to get that done which is why you don’t always see hosted games going through that process. (From what I’ve heard people saying about how much their books have earned, if you’re lucky you might break even or earn a small amount in the first year, if unlucky, you could end up out of pocket between hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on how the book does and the rate of the editor). That’s why this forum is so wonderful, lots of nice people on here willing to help each other out with proof reading and suggestions.
