Hi
I am fairly new to this profession and I am keen to buy an
editing/proof-reading guide. I have checked out a couple of websites and I
found two books that might be of use:
Edit Yourself : A Manual for Everyone Who Works With Words
by Bruce Ross-Larson
and
Go Ahead, Proof It!
by K. D. Sullivan
What do U think? Does anyone use these?
Does anyone here know of any other/better books before I spend my hard
earned cash....
Cheers,
Eadaoin,
