Show transcript
Proofreading is an active process that enables us to spot and correct errors in written work. Changing your verbs and nouns to ones that work together can create a semantic field or overall atmosphere. You can link two closely related sentences with a semi-colon. Add a sentence that starts with a present participle to transport the reader into a scene.
