AViD Writing

Introduction: I love to copy edit the way some people love to solve math problems or paint pictures - it’s an obsessive love that immerses me completely in the page. I find myself reaching for the red pen while reading newspapers, magazines, letters, emails……all of it. Copy editing is my crossword puzzle. It is my sudoku, my connect-the-dots, my word jumble. Because I am an editing addict, it benefits you. I turn out a good, clean product quickly and with a smile on my face. Copy editing can be as simple as scanning a document several times to make sure there are no misspellings, fragmented sentences, or commas sneaking in where they don’t belong. It can be as involved as restructuring entire sentences and paragraphs to get the very most out of a piece of writing as concisely as possible. It’s up to you, the client, to tell me how deep you want me to dive.
