Copy Editing
The aim of copy editing is to ensure your writing has the greatest possible impact on your audience. It’s about ensuring a text is easy to understand and may involve:
-
Correcting spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors
-
Revising sentences for clarity or concision
-
Restructuring the text so it flows smoothly
-
Looking for inconsistencies in tone, spelling or formatting
-
Checking that the vocabulary is appropriate and making or suggesting changes
-
Adapting the tone of the writing to suit the intended audience or purpose
-
Ensuring the document follows any relevant style guide
-
Providing feedback and advice on writing style or content
My task as a copy editor isn’t to make major changes the content or structure of a text, but if a sentence or paragraph is ambiguous or awkward, I will work with you to improve it.
