Create an editorial style guide in minutes with this free template
It’s preloaded with rules to fix the most common errors I've seen in 10 years as an expert copy editor
Any organization or individual steadily publishing content needs an editorial style guide.
A style guide is an essential resource to keep your content clear, consistent, and credible.
Style guides aren't just for publications. Any organization or individual that produces content needs one. Heck, even NASA has one!
A style guide helps you:
define and uphold your brand voice and content guidelines
be consistent (it would look funny if readers noticed names and words were spelled differently from book to book or blog post to blog post)
eliminate repeat grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors that distract your audience
quickly onboard and train new writers and editors to your style
Don’t have time to create a style guide?
No problem. I took the time to design one for you.
And this is not your average blank one-page PDF. It's an editable Microsoft Word document that you can start adding to immediately.
