So, this is but it still seems like the place to start.

I have a book review blog (along with a few other people). We mostly just review as we read whatever books we've purchased to read for pleasure.

Over time we've started to get the occasional request from self-published authors to review their recently released works. Sometimes this works out well and sometimes....not so much. The biggest issue we've run into is a lack of editing which has caused many a DNF...and a few of the reviewers have started to think we should just stop accepting self-pubs.

I was thinking something different. Are there any editors here who wouldn't mind giving me some contact information to post publicly? I'm not thinking personal - no one wants that - but maybe a business name/title and a contact email? I would love to be able to create a page on our blog site directing authors to decent editors. It might be helpful for them and it just might help with the slush pile we seem to get.
