About Proofing and Editing

"Before You Publish" by Tim Wourms, President of publishing for CSN Books and Legacy Line Publishing, helps authors bring their books booksto the Marketplace. You can download your free copy by going to csnbooks.com.

The Proof and edit of Your Book
The proof and edit of your manuscript is very important. You will want somebody who truly knows what the standards are in the publishing industry to prepare your book.
There is a basic difference between a proof and an edit. A “proof” means that the manuscript is prepared to be correct in punctuation and grammar. editing can be used in a broader sense, and includes proofing under its umbrella, but for publishing reasons we will explain each as a separate function.

Proofing and editing can make or break your book. You would be surprised at how sensitive some people are to mistakes. Thank goodness there is someone out there who knows what they are doing!!
