Of Interest: New “Editing Matters” Column in Intercom

STC’s popular magazine, Intercom (https://www.stc.org/intercom/), has added a new column called “Editing Matters”, which will focus on the importance of technical editing.

In this new column, Michelle Corbin covers matters (topics) about editing that matter (are of consequence) to communicators of all kinds. To understand more about editing and what you can do to improve the quality of your content, read her column!

I certainly enjoyed it – I hope you will too.
