9 Editing Tips You (Possibly) Haven't Heard Before

In some form or another, we all know how to edit. Maybe you're like me and there is some information in the back of your mind still hanging around from the 3rd grade grammar lessons. We all know subj-verb-obj, I before E except after C, etc. But when it comes to editing literature there are some more particular aspects of language that one should keep in mind in order to improve your story flow. Categories: 1. Complicated Vocabulary 2. Cliché v Collocation 3. Reading Out Loud 4. Spellchecking 5. Getting Distance 6. Seeking Out Critique 7. Grammar Help 8. How to Use the Passive Voice and Why 9. Fixing Content Errors
