Your story is sound—now it’s time for the words to shine. Manuscript Glow-Up: DIY Copyediting to Fix It Like a Pro is a practical, no-fluff workshop designed to help writers strengthen their manuscripts before submission or publication. We’ll discuss what copyediting actually is (and what it isn’t), then walk through proven techniques you can use to catch common errors, tighten prose, and improve clarity—without losing your voice. You’ll learn how to spot repetitive language, smooth awkward sentences, and avoid the mistakes that pull readers out of a story.
Perfect for writers revising on their own before working with professional editors, this session will leave you with clear strategies, checklists, and a repeatable process you can use on every manuscript. Level up with tools to make your manuscript polished, professional, and ready for readers.
