Line Edits for Jazmyne Hambrick
Key Takeaways:
Hambrick provided her document to me in the form of a PDF, which allowed me the opportunity to get creative with color coding my comments, as I had not previously considered doing with documents provided via .docx files.
In various contexts over the years, I have caught myself leaning into color association where possible, and I found that this worked well for me in my line edits for Hambrick. For example, red is used to indicate points that might need further elaboration, while blue focuses on the development of paragraphs and how to best achieve their goals.
Going forward, I plan to implement this as much as possible for ease of tracking changes and distinguishing meaning. I will also provide a “legend” of color associations for the writer to refer to in the future.
