Constant Content

I can access my articles through being signed in and going to my content, but I'm wondering how someone not signed in would do it as I doubt the same link would work for someone not signed in.

I'll try to figure it out not signed in and get back to you.

You don't have to have one. It is more if someone is looking for someone in a certain field. That being said, I'm a certified Life Coach, but that option wasn't listed so I couldn't check it off!

My article isn't coming up in the search results when I look for it not logged in as though I was a buyer. I typed in my name (not the one I'm using here) and the category and 2 articles show up but not this one. This one was done for a request but the deadline passed. I want to refer someone to it.

Someone on Twitter is talking about a theme I have an article on. I want to send the link and ask if they'd be interested in buying it. How do I do that for one specific article?

Lysis, you say you'd take an hour, but what about research? I have written on online marketing tools often, but those fields change rapidly and this client wanted a few things mentioned that are pretty new terms. Are you suggesting I should not have taken the project because I wasn't familiar enough...

If this question is about writing for the general pool versus private, let me say I think I just tried my last private project. Not worth the disappointment! I have had a couple in the past that went well. The last two, however, pissed me off. One wanted a total rewrite after I'd slogged to meet the...

Thanks for the input Celeste. Also I was thinking it might be easier to look things up with an online version where I can search and arrive at the right page instead of having a book version. Any thoughts on that?

Personally I feel the wave of grammar is to lighten up. Still, there are tough-to-the-core editors that seem to stick to stringent rules. Recently a classmate's paper was criticized for her using "email" as one word instead of "e-mail". I Googled the question and found arguments ...

I'm taking some training to become a more proficient proofreader and editor. I'm Canadian but probably would work globally. The organization I'm training with suggests using the Chicago Manual of Style first then the AP Style book. I notice CC suggests Hodges' Harbrace Handbook. Should I purchase on...

I felt it was clumsy too. I had to read it two or three times which really shouldn't happen.

SJ Hillman, actually I had Googled it and got what you did. Do you think a "trend" is something you can put something into?

Judith that is what I learned here from the editors on CC about backyard/back yard. Funny in a proofreading professional's blog post the last tip she offered was that it was ALWAYS one word. And I've signed up to take a course from her. Oh my.

Trying to improve and become a certified proofreader or editor, but finding so many conundrums. For instance the title for this section of the forum did not add a hyphen to In-House. What is correct? Do professional editors also miss things?

Thanks.

Lauren,

My first assignment to you is to decide if proofread should be one word or two?

I often use similar themes but try to put a fresh twist on it. Some topics can't help but be a little repetitive such as budgeting, real estate, home staging. Some of those buyers would expect some conformity.

So my answer is "it depends".
