🤓 post - It feels weird to give 4 stars to a textbook, but it is a really good resource and written, understandably, very well. I bought a hard copy three weeks into my editing class because I knew I’d want it on hand to physically flip through its many helpful figures and charts. Imagine my surprise when I finished my assigned reading for the week and suddenly that’s the end of the book - we actually read every single chapter. Don’t expect perfect writing from me now. If I learned anything, it’s that editing takes a LOT of work and is a constant test of diligence for even the most trained writers and readers.
