Good, practical advice. And I like the acknowledgement that proofreading can be tedious, with tips on how to counteract this.

Good article. I’d also like to add that I copy and paste into a Word document and save as a pdf activating the ‘read aloud’ feature. It’s a monotonous voice but listening to the pdf and following the Word document picks up a lot of grammar and typo errors. The other aspect of being read to is that the writer becomes the reader and I find this can highlight ‘huh?’ type moments. It all might be a bit fiddly but it works for me.
