IT MAKES EVERYTHING I WRITE BETTER
“Though I submitted my essay ‘A Blur in the Field’ to a few literary journals without publication, I tried again with Cutleaf, but only AFTER I ran it through Stacy Juba’s Line Editing Cheat Sheet. The essay was immediately accepted for publication and I was paid more for it than for any other piece I’ve published! I recommend Stacy’s smart and helpful list. It makes everything I write better. (Of course I’m still using it!)” Lori Brack
GOOD REMINDER
“Line Editing Made Simple was a good reminder and refresher. I come from a journalism, nonfiction background, so while things like ‘that’ and other redundancies are on my radar (cliche!), some other things not as much. I loved that the lessons were written out! I can review it, make notes, come back to it as needed!” Michelle
