This guide helps you refine your straight nonfiction writing (not memoir or creative nonfiction—we're talking expertise-driven books where you teach, guide, or share your knowledge), giving you the tools to ensure your message lands with clarity and impact. Written by a professional book editor and former teacher who's helped bring nearly 300 books to life, this guide gives you a flexible self-editing toolbox. You choose which of the 21 topics your manuscript needs most across four internal editing passes: Content Pass—strengthen your introduction, eliminate unnecessary repetition, clarify your message, and ensure you deliver on your promises Organization Pass—fix confusing structure, create logical flow, add transitions that actually connect your ideas Writing Pass—cut the fluff, sharpen sentences, maintain tone without sounding like a robot Technical Pass—clean up grammar, punctuation, citations, and capitalization before your editor sees it The payoff? When you give your editor a stronger draft, they can take your book further. You get a better-quality book with greater impact, and you control costs by reducing professional editing time. One ghostwriter and hybrid publishing CEO called this book "the New Elements of Style" for a reason. Because good writing is rewriting.
