“Proofreading is vitally important, hard to do well, and tedious as hell.” ~Brian Clark.
Proofreading traditionally means reading a proof copy of a text in order to detect and correct any errors. Modern proofreading often requires reading copy at earlier stages as well. Whether you are writing a magazine article, a college essay or an email to a client, getting your text free of mistakes is essential. Having an erroneous article, essay or e-mail may sabotage your task, frustrate your client, or even may cause you deduction in marks. Is there any way out that may make your writing perfect and error free? In the words of Mark Twain, "In the first place God made idiots," he once wrote. "This was for practice. Then he made proof-readers.". So, are proof readers made by god? May be yes, but it’s even possible for people like you and me to learn the art of proof reading and editing. All that’s required is a passion to learn, interest in reading and writing, and above all, an expert who can teach all the concepts with patients. If you having a passion and interest, then an expert wants to teach you.
