Just what do you do with people who write this to you? <\/p>\n

I\u2019m not kidding. While this doesn\u2019t happen very often, it does happen. I receive emails very much like this. I see messages at writers\u2019 blogs and forums online like this. What are these people thinking? Does one realize when they lack literary\/grammatical knowledge and skill? Can they see the difference between their writing and what most people write? Do they know how they come across or are they just lazy?<\/p>\n
Does a writer know when he or she stinks\u2014when their writing does not make sense or when it is difficult to follow? It\u2019s heartening to me when clients readily recognize the improvement in their manuscripts after I work with them. I have some clients who don\u2019t seem to have that awareness. They may like what I\u2019ve done, but then they continue to write run-on, complicated, go nowhere sentences, for example. That\u2019s frustrating.<\/p>\n
I am a teaching editor. I don\u2019t just change the structure of your sentences, move things around, rewrite sections of your manuscript and correct your spelling, grammar or use of words. I leave your original writing in parenthesis and rewrite it in red lettering to show you how I would change\/correct it. I will explain why I\u2019ve made certain suggestions. You have the opportunity to learn new skills and techniques. You can also go back to your original words if you don\u2019t agree with me\u2014which doesn\u2019t happen very often. <\/p>\n
I also give you the opportunity to rewrite parts of your story or nonfiction manuscript rather than charging you to do the rewrites. I make the suggestions such as, \u201cCan you flesh out this episode\u2014I think we need more clarity on why this happened and who was present.\u201d Or \u201cI don\u2019t understand why Margery came back. Could you explain this better?\u201d Or \u201cI don\u2019t think your instructions are in the right order. Can you work on this?\u201d <\/p>\n
Hire me to edit your manuscript this year and, not only will you end up with a much improved story or nonfiction book, but you\u2019ll also learn volumes. Working with me is like getting an education along with a professionally edited manuscript to present to publishers or agents.<\/p>\n
