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!
A Blog for all writers who are serious about the craft of writing, and want to learn more tricks of the trade, and become the writers they always dreamed they could be!
