10. Your time is too precious (and possibly expensive) to spend on small details.
9. You've spent so much time with your work that you can't "see" it anymore.
8. So many people have worked on your piece that it is lacking a solid, cohesive voice and style.
7. You don't have the patience to go hunting for misplaced modifiers, dangling prepositions, or comma splices.
6. You didn't know that the word "hopefully" shouldn't be used as a sentence adverb ("Hopefully the mail hasn't been picked up yet..."), "irregardless" isn't a word, and describing yourself as "nauseous" technically means you are making other people sick.
5. You don't want grammar, spelling, and/or punctuation errors to deflect from the quality of your thoughts and ideas.
4. Having an experienced professional review your work will increase your confidence about the piece.
3. Software designed to check spelling and grammar is by no means foolproof.
2. Your work must be of the highest quality.
1. The costs associated with hiring an editor will undoubtedly pay themselves back several times over through new business, access to a job interview, or publication.
"Kelci produced several important publications (for a higher education membership organization) and wrote a great deal of content for the organization's Web site. I was always struck by her perfectionism – she has an eagle-eye for editing, and a succinct and powerful writing style . . . It is comforting to know there are still professionals like Kelci who understand the English language inside and out, and who can provide services to those of us who don't have such an easy time transferring our thoughts into the written word." -- Marcia H., Ledyard, CT
