Tips for submission

TIP #1: Never send a project to an important reader without first having it proofread and copy edited.

TIP #2: Spell check is not the same as having a professional editor read your work.

TIP #3: Take time to let your work breathe, allowing a few weeks or up to several months after finishing a draft to review and revise. Then, hire a good editor.
