So you want to be an editor

Everyone edits in a way. A researcher reviews a textbook. A speaker pauses to find a better term in the middle of his speech. A student makes her reading notes transparent. All of them edit.

All forms of living activities are carried out by professional editors. The publishers work in a number of departments and perform countless activities. Nevertheless, whatever the project an editor deals with, the goal is always the same: enhancing the communication efficiency.

The author, along with the writer, is responsible for ensuring the document’s survival, whether the text is in the form of an essay, book manuscript, website, journal, blog, news release or other form of communication.
