The Publishing Journey – Step 4 – Copy editing

SheWrites Press has green-lighted my submission, meaning that they believe if the total manuscript measures up to the sample I sent, they will not require additional developmental editing or content revision. I owe having cleared this hurdlenot to my own care or competence but to the well-considered line-editing and content feedback I have received throughout the development of the manuscript by my Writing Group.

So thanks and kudos to
