Reblogging Editing – The Never Ending Story

Editing – The Never Ending Story. My sympathies on the seemingly never-ending re-reads of a manuscript to try to capture that last typo, misspelling, etc. My professional editor wife who edited and proofread my manuscript with Friesen did miss a few things which we only discovered after the publication and after many, many times going over the manuscript. Ah, well, it seems that almost any book we read nowadays contains one or several “mistakes” – my wife even encountered a typo in a published Bible that she was using at her former workplace. Good luck in your final, final proofing. It’s a good idea to have several others go through the manuscript as well. Sometimes we get so used to our own writing or editing that, as you say with your word “just”, things just pass us by as if they weren’t there. It sounds like you are about to complete the task soon. Best wishes in this daunting task.

  1. I’ve been surfing on-line more than 3 hours today, but I
    by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
    It’s beautiful value sufficient for me. In my opinion, if
    all webmasters and bloggers made good content material as you did, the net
    might be much more helpful than ever before.

    I’ve very little knowledge of programming however
    I had been hoping to start my own blog in the
    near future. Anyways, if you have any recommendations or techniques for new blog owners please
    share. I know this is off topic however I just wanted to ask.

    It’s good to come across a blog every once in a
    while that isn’t the same outdated rehashed material.
    Wonderful read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m adding your RSS
    feeds to my Google account.
