EDITING
You write to communicate to the hearts and minds of others what's burning inside you, and I edit to let the fire show through the smoke. If grammar is the skeleton of expression and usage the flesh and blood, then style is the personality.” Arthur Plotnik

My job as an editor is to help ensure your ideas are expressed as clearly as possible in your unique voice and minimize the cognitive load on the reader to ensure those ideas are well received. I do that by applying the principles of Plain English.

Thank you for your work on this assignment. I have just finished reviewing the comments matrix. I had no idea we had so many comments! The guide looks very good and again I thank you for your work on this.
The legal team in particular was impressed with this style and noted that this will make moving to the next step much easier.

Thanks Terry! You saved me from sitting in a rural roadside cafe editing when I needed to get home to see the kids.
