Why can’t I edit my own paper?

For the same reason that physicians often refuse to treat their spouse or child. Surgery often requires detachment and careful thinking, as does editing. Like a surgeon operating on her own son, you may be too close to your own paper to ‘make the cuts’ required by editing.

Writing a thesis or journal article takes weeks, months, or even years. You become attached to your words after spending so much time with them.

You might fail to see a spelling error, or miss a grammar mistake after reading the same line for the hundredth time. A mistake made in Chapter 2 might go unnoticed as you finish Chapter 6.

Check your paper with someone who isn’t as attached to the words themselves, but is still fully focused on your success. At Proofread.my, we take a professional, detached look at the words themselves, while helping you express your thoughts and ideas in the best way possible.

Of course, you are the final decision-maker before submitting your paper.

That’s why proofread.my always offers a “tracked changes” version of your document. Having your paper professionally edited does not mean giving up control. Even the best writers benefit from having a professional editor on their team. Let us at proofread.my have a second look at your work. You’ll be glad you did.
