Significant Points
  • Competition is expected to be less for lower paying, entry-level jobs at small daily and weekly newspapers, trade publications, and radio and television broadcasting stations in small markets. Persons who fail to gain better paying jobs or earn enough as independent writers usually are able to transfer readily to communications-related jobs in other occupations.

Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Writers and editors communicate through the written word. Writers and editors generally fall into one of three categories. Writers and authors develop original fiction and nonfiction for books, magazines and trade journals, newspapers, online publications, company newsletters, radio and television broadcasts, motion pictures, and advertisements. Technical writers develop scientific or technical materials, such as scientific and medical reports, equipment manuals, appendices, or operating and maintenance instructions. They also may assist in layout work.

Words About Words
To communicate about their work, copy editors use a number of terms that most people forgot after their last course in English composition (or maybe never knew at all). In addition to knowing how to make a poor sentence better, a copy editor has to be able to defend his or her decisions to writers, editors, and fellow copy editors. That means being able to talk the talk. This list also provides a good indication of the errors that copy editors commonly catch and correct.
antecedent
A word, phrase, or clause to which a pronoun refers, usually (but not always) one that precedes the pronoun.
Gary lives in the suburbs and commutes to his job in the city.
Gary's job is unpleasant because it requires that he deal with rude and surly people.
A possessive is not an appropriate antecedent:
Gary's job is a 45-minute commute from his home.
EDIT: Gary has a 45-minute commute to his job.
EDIT: Gary's job is a 45-minute commute from home.

A Bibliography for Copy Editors Last update: June 2, 2000 Melinda J. McAdams and may not be reproduced in any form for any reason. This is a U.S.-oriented list of reference books that I consider useful for copy editors and wordsmiths in general. You can buy most of them from Amazon.com, an online bookstore, by following the title links. I have used all these books, some of them extensively. An experienced copy editor (I was one, full-time, for eleven years) probably knows more about dictionaries than anyone else who isn't a professional lexicographer. I know we know more about grammar and usage than any English teacher alive, and if we don't know it, we know where to look it up.
