Though short stories are short by their very nature, if you’re planning to publish your work, you’ll definitely need a copy editor. Even the most prolific writers find it hard to see mistakes in their own work after spending so much time on it — particularly if it’s condensed in a smaller space. So, once you’ve finished your story, you’ll need an editor with experience working on short stories who can root out typoes, inconsistencies, and any other errors.
