Things Writers Do, Part 17: Proofread

Quality writers revise and edit their work; they also proofread, detecting overlooked errors in grammar, spelling, capitalization, punctuation, sizing, and spacing, among many other linguistic and graphical elements. They protect their REP:

  • Edit — for expression
  • Proofread — for correctness
