My 5 Favorite Rules to Reference in CMOS
Update: 2025-02-05
Description
If you’re anything like me, there are times when you’ve been deep in your editing cave. In those heavy editing times, I always find myself reaching for my trusty Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS) to confirm my work. With so many rules, it’s impossible to remember them all, but there are some I check all. the. time. In this episode, I’m sharing the five rules I always double-check while editing.
This episode was recorded in January 2025, after the release of CMOS 18 in September 2024. All references made are based on CMOS 18.
