Self-Editing Your Own Writing

Self-Editing Your Own Writing

The goal of any writer, editor, or otherwise is to have their work read as quickly and effortlessly by readers. It’s important that you’re able to hit those high notes because if not then people will simply stop reading! But don’t worry there are lots of ways to self-edit your own writing (so even when an editor isn’t available), they can still enjoy what was written without feeling too frustrated with how difficult it might’ve been understood due in large part thanks to all these tips below:

Paper over screen

You can find spelling mistakes, sentence fragments, and run-ons more easily when reading your words on the printed page because they are easier to spot than trying to track them down against a bright computer screen; you might even want to change up some formatting if that helps give an alternative perspective of what’s happening in each paragraph.

Do you hear yourself?

As a writer, you want to make sure that what comes out sounds witty and intelligent. But how do we know if our writing actually does either? The best way for me as an author was when I heard myself talk back in real-time while editing. Listening to how your writing sounds can also help you listen for lines that don’t sound right, like characterless sentences or overuse of particular phrases. Sometimes a writer doesn’t realize their sentence structure is poor until they hear it read aloud.

Edit each line

When you’re editing your own work, it’s important to look closely at the words that were written. A good editor will systematically go through every line of a piece and I suggest doing this as well so any outstanding issues can be found like grammatical errors or typos before they become distracting in tone with other aspects of content. It is a tedious process that may seem difficult but when done properly these tasks should not take too long-just patience!

Take a break

We all know the feeling of staring at our computer screens wondering what we are doing with our lives. When you first start writing, it’s easy to get wrapped up in your thoughts and not see what is written. Stepping away from the document will allow for a fresh perspective that can help with improving sentence structure as well as creative issues like clutter or lackluster subjects.


Editing your own work isn’t easy but finishing the job by making changes on paper can feel satisfying. While most would argue that you cannot beat a professional editor here are a few online tools that can help any writer.

Beating Writer’s Block: 3 Tips to Write your Best

Beating Writer’s Block: 3 Tips to Write your Best

What if I told you there was no such thing as writer’s block? Here are 3 quick tips for beating writer’s block.
The only time a person gets “writer’s block” is when they stop writing. And even then, it doesn’t exist because by not doing anything we create an idea in our head and make ourselves think about what comes next instead of just sitting around waiting for something to come along naturally like magic!

Do not be afraid to Fail

Your writing might not be perfect, but that’s the whole point. In fact, the more you do it the better! When you stop being afraid and allow yourself the freedom to just write, your words will come out more creatively and with a better tone of voice. And yes, I am going to edit later either way so…

Don’t set unreachable goals

Remember that writer who sat down and wrote a novel in one night? Yeah, I don’t either. Setting goals is an important part of any personal development journey, but it’s also something that can be challenging. The first step to goal-setting success should always involve setting achievable targets and not unrealistic objectives because if they are too high then you’re more likely just going to backslide instead of improving yourself in some form or fashion.

Multitasking

When you’re feeling stuck in a creative rut, it can be tempting to give up on all your projects. But the reality of life is that we will often only work on one thing at once–and if this doesn’t click for some reason or another-you just switch over until something does!

You are not blocked, you just got too much greatness going.


There are so many great ideas in your head but nothing that meets the criteria for greatness! The key here though is not to get discouraged when it feels like there isn’t anything worth writing about; instead focus on what inspires or interests YOU personally – because after all this will be something only made up by yourself anyway :).

Online tools can help any writer

Online tools can help any writer

The content you create should be engaging, but it’s hard to do when there are so many other writers out in the world. Online tools can help any writer by automating certain tasks and giving feedback on quality through algorithms!

Plagiarism Checker

When you’re rewriting other people’s ideas, there is a chance that your output will contain copied lines from what was already published. This can cause severe problems for both the site and its author in later searches on Google if they are found plagiarizing content or taking credit without permission to publish the same thing again elsewhere. To escape these mishaps, all original research must be included within each article so it isn’t detected as duplicate reports across different webpages/publications, etc., which would lead directly towards penalties such as punishment including being labeled “plagiarized” by authorities like search engines like google who take very seriously their responsibility protecting the integrity. So, running your work through a plagiarism tool such as Quetext or Grammarly is worth it to avoid future headaches.

Grammar Checker

Humans are not perfect and it’s difficult to detect every single error from lengthy writings, which is why some people use online grammar checker tools such as Grammarly. These websites will check the content of your article for you; they’ll highlight words that disturb its fluency (i..e., make reading more challenging).

Virtual Notepads

With these tools, you can create ideas and notes quickly. The features allow for different font styles that are available on online platforms as well! You’ll be able to generate quality content with ease using the many options at your fingertips

Summarizing tools

These AI-based tools are great for condensing long articles into easy-to-read summaries. They’ll do it faster than anyone else could ever hope while still maintaining accuracy so 99% percent chance everything gets summarized correctly (and sometimes even more)! These AI-based computer programs crawl deep into the text; looking at every sentence individually before making their summary based on what really matters most about each point–which means less time wasted

When you are looking for a way to make your writing more creative and engaging, it’s time to consider using online tools. These can help automate tasks that keep writers focused on the task at hand while they’re working away in their favorite environment – whether it’s relaxing at home or sitting back with some coffee during lunch break!
