on 5/28/2009 Good steps on how to proofread like a Pro. I save my articles and then read them later in the day before publishing now. This way I read what the article says not what I think it says. Plus your step on reading it out loud is a big help. Thanks for the additional information.

on 5/19/2009 Excellent article, I have to re-read pretty much everything I write, it is amazing how your fingers and your brain are not always on the same word. LOL

on 5/15/2009 Great ideas...all of them! I especially like the one about reading a document in reverse. I'll try that.#3 is the clincher for me as well when it comes to proofing my own work. Glad to have this article available. Well done...and thanks! 5*'s and recommend

on 12/22/2008 I never realized about reading a document in reverse; I'm usually distracted with looking in the rear-view mirror. Good points.
