How Do I Format My Manuscript?
You have two choices with manuscript formatting -- you can either format first or format last. I format first -- that is, I do the whole novel in exactly the same format in which I will submit it. It uses more paper for print-outs, but I can copyedit my work easily, and I don't have to mess around with it later -- when the words are done, so is the formatting. Once you've decided when you're going to format, however, the next question is ... how? I use two formats -- one for novels, and one for short work, both fiction and nonfiction. I have never had a complaint about my formatting, I have never had work bounced for formatting, so I know that both of these formats are professionally acceptable. These are not the only correct manuscript formats out there...
