Last week, I listened to a wonderful talk that discussed creative writing editing mistakes that writers make. The talk was held in the Inkslingers Den Facebook Group which is a great resource for writers. The talk was given by Angela James, a professional editor who worked for Carina Press for over 10 years. As I watched I took notes and decided to share her 11 editing mistakes here on my blog too.
