Copyediting 101…102…103…

Have a knack for grammar and know AP, CMS, and/or MLA style inside and out? Maybe you want to try copyediting.

We mention this because not only does mediabistro have a bazillion copyediting courses coming up, but we just discovered a fantastically thorough and free resource for copyeditors and copyeditor wannabes at Katharine O’Moore-Klopf‘s web site.

The Copyeditors’ Knowledge Base is chock-full of reading material and examples, and it is free, free, free. Learn where to get formal training and/or certification, see sample letters to clients (a project estimate, a sample contract), learn about reference books to buy, and so on.

And those courses we mentioned? If you do feel like you want something more substantial: this one takes place online, this one is located at mediabistro’s NY headquarters, and this one starts in a couple weeks in DC.

Launch a social media campaign that will build your brand and deliver results in our online Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting June 7. Speakers include Abigail Cusick (Bravo Digital), Gregory Galant (Sawhorse Media), Alex Leo (Thomson Reuters Digital), Jim Tobin (Ignite Social Media), and many more. Read the reviews.
