ENG 334 - Professional Writing and Editing (3)
This course explores and practices the skills necessary for a career as a professional writer-freelance or otherwise-and editor. Learn the ins and outs of professional writing markets, from investigative longform essays in magazines, to trade and corporate publications, to pitching book-length proposals at publishers. On the editing side, dig into the Chicago Manual of Style-by far the most widely used style guide-and learn how to edit and copyedit manuscripts for academic, artistic, and professional publication: from fact-checking, attending to the minute particulars of grammar and punctuation, to getting right the various kinds of formatting and styling required to prepare manuscripts for press.
Offered Fall 2017 and alternate Fall semesters.
