Do you ever wonder how others edit their writing ? Me, too. So, picture my delight when I came across a fabulous example of revision … By a bestselling author!

I’ve been using ChatGPT a lot recently. But for the most part, I haven’t been using it to write content or copy. I’ve been using it as a brainstorming buddy and an information-cruncher. As an example, here’s how I’ve been using ChatGPT to help me update the coaching page on my website. I used to do a lot of one-on-one coaching with freelancers. Then I paused for a while.

At any given time, I’m juggling way more than a handful of clients. Right now, I have 10 recurring monthly clients, and 3 I do ad-hoc work for. I admit, it *does* seem like I do a lot of work. I know a lot of freelancers who only write one or two pieces a week, and that’s totally cool too. There’s no one-size-fits-all. But I’ve been doing this for 8 years now (my freelance anniversary is coming up this month!

Hey Susan, I’m dealing with an issue as a copywriter that I never expected, and I’m not sure what to do. Hoping you can give me some advice. A client contacted me through my website last month about writing beauty articles, one of my favorite subject areas. He agreed to my rate and timeline, and the first few articles went great. Then, he decided he’d rather have me outline the articles, farm them out to cheaper writers, and have me edit.

Doing something for others—whether big or small—feels good. And when someone thanks you for it, the typical response is “you’re welcome.” It’s a way of acknowledging that “ thank you ,” and it’s a common phrase whether you’re in the workplace, at home, or at a café. But in a professional setting, your work is often tied to doing things that benefit others.

Few things are more frustrating than reading a paragraph, reaching its end, and then wondering, “What the #@*% did I just read?”. There are a number of reasons why this might happen. One of them is a lack of focus in the writing. When a paragraph meanders from topic to topic, tries to fit in too many topics, or fails to clearly make the connection between its topic sentence and its supporting sentences, the writing isn’t focused.

In American English, we use double quotation marks ( “ ” ) in most situations and single quotation marks ( ‘ ’ ) only for quotes within quotes or certain titles within quotes. In other words, double quotation marks are usually correct, although using single versus double quotation marks in England is a little different. But the question remains: When exactly do you use double quotation marks, and when do you use single quotation marks?
