Editing and Proofreading

"Editing and Proofreading Your Work" examines why it’s essential to first edit and then proofread your writing. When reviewing our own work, we often overlook errors and mistakes, filling in gaps mentally. This can result in a final product that appears unprofessional. Editing helps refine content, while proofreading ensures accuracy and polish.
