"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.
When we ask our proofers to proof a manuscript, it comes with very specific instructions to our proofers; it means “check for spelling errors and simple grammatical mistakes.” The reason for this is simple: a proofer must have a different set of eyes than an editor. When proofing is combined with editing, the editor then must look at the manuscript with two sets of eyes, and that degrades the quality of both processes.
Michael Wourms, Founder, CSN Books
CSN books is a Christian publisher and Legacy Line publishing is our cross-over division.
