Hello, welcome to the blog.
One of the joys of being an academic editor is being taken into new, fascinating worlds and being, for a few hours, a privileged spectator. And then you come back to earth with a bang as you notice a mis-typed word, an incorrect reference, or an inconsistency!
It was at one of these moments that the idea of a blog was born, out of the reflection that although every author is unique, many of the editorial problems that come to light are not.
So as I find or remember an interesting aspect of my work or a frequently-raised problem, I shall blog about it. This is intended both an online notebook for me and a very informal resource for writers, clients, passers-by and anyone who is interested in language and the craft of honing material for publication.
If there is a language problem you would like me to try to respond to, on the blog, please email me at pennybrown@good-impressions.net.
