I just got out of a meeting reguarding my first legal writing memo.

And for the first time, I recieved criticism that is actually helpful to me.

Do other people who write use editors, and how long did it take for you to find a good one?

(I went through Highschool, AND Undergraduate College without finding one. it's only now in Lawschool That I've found one.)


(Oh yeah, on a side note, he says that I had some of the best ideas in my class, but my writing style is too informal. (I violated half the rules in "THE BLUE BOOK " <insert horses crying, and Thunder & Lightning>)

I wonder if there's a lawyer version of MS Word's Grammar Check...

I had an editor, not an official editor, just another writer friend. Unfortunately she has been very busy, so I'm just writing and writing and writing... One of my friends' mother is an editor, too, but then I'd have to pay her. :p

Bleh, rule books, I hate those.
