SmartEdit Pro for Word 7.1

SmartEdit is a Microsoft Word Add-In for creative writers. It takes the heavy lifting out of the editing process, making your job easier and faster. If you're writing a novel or short story SmartEdit will help you polish that first draft in record time.


Identify word and phrase over-use
Do you begin your sentences with the same word or phrase? Are you using certain words too often? SmartEdit will spot these easily over-looked shortcomings so you can fix them.

Monitor adverbs, crutch words & clich?s
Do you lean on certain words and phrases? Do you use a few too many adverbs? Are you overly fond of unusual dialogue tags? SmartEdit will find and help you fix these problems.

Improve sentence structure & punctuation
Too many long sentences? SmartEdit will help you fix that in minutes. Do you have a misplaced love for the semi-colon? SmartEdit will show them all to you so you can decide if they belong.

What does SmartEdit do?
SmartEdit runs over 25 checks on your document and highlights potential problems, including:
Repeated words and phrases
Over-use of adverbs and clich?s
Misused words such as breathe instead of breath
Long and winding sentences
Use of crutch words
Unusual dialogue tags that shouldn't be there
Misnamed proper nouns that slipped past you
Excessive use of semi-colons and exclamation marks

What does SmartEdit NOT do?
It does not tell you to remove or replace a word
It does not make any automated changes for you
It does not make suggestions
It does not tell you whether your work might be good, bad, or somewhere in between
You're the creative writer; it's your novel. SmartEdit is a tool that's there to help you as you edit. A glorified spell-checker. Nothing more.
Are you a published author? Are you planning to become a published author? Have you finished or are you close to finishing a first draft of a novel or short story? If you answered yes to any of these questions, SmartEdit is for you.
