Then the manuscript is ready for a grammar and spell check. Ash advises authors to find proofreaders and copy editors who are familiar with the genre an author is writing in. There are colloquialisms and industry trends that editors must be aware of when editing a book. Ash says you don&rsquo;t have to like your copy editor and proofreader, or become good friends; but, you do want to make sure they will understand your material and do the best work possible.</p> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-73/ChoosingtheRightProofreaderandCopyEditorforYourBook.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../ChoosingtheRightProofreaderandCopyEditorforYourBook.mp4</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
