Free Online Tools To Help You Edit Your Writing
Editing is important. Whether you're preparing your manuscript for submission to a publisher or agent, or self publishing, it's a step that should never be missed. Hiring an editor can be expensive though and not everyone can afford one.
The good news is that there are other options available. Whilst hiring a professional editor is preferable, the internet offers some great editing tools. Even better news is that most of them are free, or offer a free trail version.
I personally like to run my manuscripts though several as sometimes one will notice something another didn't.

Thanks Jo. Good post and effective resources. I often use Grammarly, that’s why my college essays are always blameless.

DeleteRe-checking you own write-up shows the mistakes you making unknowingly and it makes the content more professional and error-free which is ideal to publish. And these editing tools are helping to make our content more effective and clean. I must share these editing tools with my co-writers who are professionally providing help with assignments and editing services to UK’s university students at Quality Dissertation, which can help them to improve their editing skills as well as better output. Personally I am preferring Grammarly which is good and easy.
DeleteGreat tools - thanks!

ReplyDeleteJo,
ReplyDeleteI teach junior high English. These are great resources for the classroom! Thanks for compiling this list. Now, if you have any tips on how to get teenagers to edit their writing let me know...
I love to hear from you. So feel free to comment, but keep in mind the basics of blog etiquette — no spam, no profanity, no slander, etc.
