Tips on technical writing and editing

Once upon a time I was an editor at Butterworth Scientific which published technical journals and books. As well as honing my own journalistic skills I spent many happy hours editing and proofreading content from our contributors.

Almost as many moons ago I used this knowledge in a collaborative chapter with the late, great Ron Brown from KBC on editing technical writing. It's old, but it's still relevant, and not just for technical writers. There are tips here for anyone who writes or edits for business - marketing, articles, journals and books. And it's short.

Here's our guide to editing for accuracy and style.
