Because people tend not to notice their own mistakes? They can look it over but not see it.

[(Anonymous)]

I always notice mistakes as soon as I submit.

I'll re-read an email five times and think "Okay, we're good." Then I'll send it and glance through it one more time and notice a spelling or grammatical error. And it's always like this.

[(Anonymous)]

Yep, I do the exact same thing.

I suggest reading your secret out loud to yourself before you submit it. I often suggest reading aloud as a revision strategy for my writing students because when you read silently, you often read what you *think* you wrote instead of what you actually did.

Another good one is reading it backwards, for the same reason. I read (and read aloud) very quickly, so this helps me a lot!

[lunabee34]

Yes! I don't do that one, but one of the teachers I work with will sometimes ask students to read their essays backwards. (these are short essays)

STORY OF MY LIFE.

Yeah, maybe you're right. I just thought this one was really glaring (first word on the last line) -- hell, I could barely read that tiny red text, and I still saw it right away.
