Editing & Proofreading Symbols All Writers Should Know!


     If you are a writer, here are symbols every writer should know about.    Editors, and proofreaders use certain  symbols when they are correcting your written piece, unless you've written a perfect piece, with no mistakes (and that's not likely!)  But if your  manuscript comes back to you with numerous marks that you don't understand, then this blog is for you.  So in this blog I am posting common marks used by Editors, and proofreaders to help you get a better understanding of what they say is wrong with your writing, so you can better correct it.  Often when we write, the words flow so fast that we don't even see the mistakes.  We're on a "Roll" and nothing can stop us until we see the mistakes highlighted by the Editor, or Proofreader.  So buckle up and learn these important symbols.  They will make you a better writer.  For more information on this subject check the web, it would be worth you time & effort!
