Just because it’s spelled right doesn’t mean it’s grammatical. Test your grammar knowledge by taking this month’s quiz, only at CMOS Shop Talk. #ChicagoStyle #AmEditing #AmWriting cmosshoptalk.com/2023/05/30/chi…
Happy #ChineseLanguageDay 中文日快乐! We are thrilled to have so many complex and simplified Chinese-language editions of our favorite books. Here are a few of our most recent translations, plus two Chicago guides.
On our blog, we chat with Amy J. Schneider @amyjschn, author of the very new and very popular book, THE CHICAGO GUIDE TO COPYEDITING FICTION: bit.ly/3npvTXc
@ChicagoManual My philosophy 101 professor: "Deadlines are your friend. They tell you to be finished now."
In a book, I'll take footnotes every single time.
Books intended for a general audience may have lots of notes but no note numbers in the text—but how does this work? “Invisible” endnotes are in the spotlight, this week at CMOS Shop Talk. #ChicagoStyle #AmEditing #AmWriting cmosshoptalk.com/2022/12/20/inv…

@ChicagoManual @iapti How about using a line break (Shift+Enter)?
I love CMOS, PerfectIt, and puppies. How could I not share?! #ChicagoStyle #AmEditing #puppies
Variant spellings can slow an editor down, but @ChicagoManual for PerfectIt can help. Find out how, this week at CMOS Shop Talk. #ChicagoStyle #AmEditing cmosshoptalk.com/2022/02/08/spe…
@ChicagoManual My copy of CMOS just got delivered today.
@SubvCopyEd @ChicagoManual Number 5: D'oh. (I should know better than to take the CMS quiz at the end of the day.)
I don’t know why this kind of thing is rollicking good entertainment in my world, but it is. (No comma needed after “rollicking.”)
Commas are practically synonymous with editing, but how well do you know them? Pause for a moment to take this month’s quiz at CMOS Shop Talk. #ChicagoStyle #AmEditing cmosshoptalk.com/2021/11/30/chi…
#OnRevision @UChicagoPress A mantra to guide your own revision: Do unto your reader as you would have your read do unto you if your roles were reversed. Make that the litmus test for every writerly decision you make.
@UChicagoPress #OnRevision I've written a book that's meant to be used, even used up, by readers. Not being read means not being used. Not exactly a fear, but I really do want this book to give people confidence, and even writerly courage.
@UChicagoPress #OnRevision Writers are good at finding the little, secret pleasures in doing what they do. Revising can offer those pleasures, too, doesn't it?
