BECOME A PRO EDITOR
Master Self-Editing
Whether you’re submitting content to your client or writing for fun, credibility is at stake if your content is littered with errors. The only problem? It’s hard to spot mistakes in your own writing.
This eBook, authored by pro editor Conan Tobias, shares how to become a better self-editor — so you can feel more confident, impress your readers, and increase your rates.
MASTER SELF-EDITING
This guide isn’t designed to teach you how to write.
You won’t learn the parts of a sentence or parts of speech.
It’s instead a guide that looks at some common mistakes, some things that often trip people up, and some things people often need help with. It will give your writing that extra polish needed to stand out.
