Track Changes in Microsoft Word*

I am familiar with using the "track changes" feature in Microsoft Word.
I have not used "track changes" and may need assistance using this feature.

Editing Preferences

Please rate your strength as a writer...*

How much assistance would you prefer from one of our writers to make your manuscript better?

If our writer feels that a sentence could be worded better, would you rather...*

Have them re-write the sentence for you. (you can always undo their changes with "track changes")
Have them leave a comment in your document suggesting a conceptual change that you could make

How important is it that our writer retain the tone of your writing? (check the one that best applies)*

If someone else can re-write it to make it sound better, go ahead. What I wrote was probably just the first thought I had.
If you can retain my overall tone but clean things up a bit, that would be great.
If I said it a certain way, that's how I meant it. Keep it.
