Editing Symbols

Do you know some of the editing symbols that go with the territory? For instance, if an editor or someone in your critique group goes over your manuscript and scribbles all those strange-looking squiggles all over your pages, would you know what they meant for your editing process? Most writers know, but just in case you don’t, this post, How to Revise Your Work (& Awesome Editing Symbols You Should Know), by Brian A. Klems on the Writer’s Digest blog is informative but also a fun read because he adds some of his own editing symbols to the well-known ones. Have fun.
