All,
Another strategy I use is to put the work aside overnight. A final

is one of the reasons so much of my final works are sent before the sun
rises!
Fraternally yours,
Marion

>>>>>>>>>Hey guys,
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>First, if you can use Braille and have access to either a
>>>>>>>>>refreshable
>>>>>>>>>Braille device or Braille embosser, you can check all the same
>>>>>>>>>spelling,
>>>>>>>>>grammar and structure issues as sighted people. Just a quick
> plug
>>>>>>>>>for
>>>>>>>>>Braille. *smile*
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>If you solely use JAWS to edit, though, it is not always as
>>>>>>>>>difficult as
>>>>>>>>>you might think. It is an adjustment, but it can be done. One
> big
>>>>>>>>>helpful feature of JAWS is that you can turn on a feature that
> will
>>>>>>>>>read
>>>>>>>>>all punctuation including commas and apostrophies. Go to the
> JAWS
>>>>>>>>>window and pull up the option menu, then go to basics, then tab
>>>>>>>>>until
>>>>>>>>>you hear punctuation and select "all punctuation ." The short
> cut
>>>>>>>>>is to
>>>>>>>>>press insert and V which will bring up the verbocity dialogue
> box,
>>>>>>>>>then
>>>>>>>>>it will list different options, press P until you hear
> punctuation,
>>>>>>>>>press space bar to change the punctuation mode. Do this until
> you
>>>>>>>>>hear
>>>>>>>>>"all."
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>By the way, we will have a guest speaker for a monthly meeting
>>>>>>>>>(probably
>>>>>>>>>after the New Year) who will talk about how to use JAWS for
> editing
>>>>>>>>>purposes.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>Anyway, hope this helps.

> Jean,
> One very important step in submitting error-free work is to have
> someone
> else give it a critical read. This is something most writers will do,
> whether blind or not. An objective look can pick up spelling errors and
> offer some grammatical input. I have a couple of people in my circle
> with
> whom I exchange such servicess. They send me things to look over and I
> send
> pieces to them. It's actually a pretty fun process, since each of us
> have
> our different interests and styles. I learn a lot about the fields of
> library science and private pilotting from reading my sister's work and
> she
> and I have had some very deep philosophical discussions after she has
> read
> one of my metaphysical or mental health articles. This list can be a
> great
> resource, as well.
> I also find that I can usually pick up such mistakes as the ".," one
>
> mentioned by Donna, as well as have a pretty good ear for spelling
> errors,
> provided I don't put myself to sleep reading my own work! (grin) Now,
> when a
> spelling error results in a homonym, JAWS doesn't pick that up and
> neither
> does spell check, as it only checks for spelling, not appropriateness of
> the
> words. We can also recognize habitual errors we make and, when proofing,
>
> check for these errors. For instance, because I type at about 120 wpm, I
>
> frequently miss the synchronization of the "Shift" key with the letter
> key;
> therefore, when I proof my own work, I stop and check for capitals where
>
> they should be.
> Another important reason for having someone else examine your work
> is to
> help ensure you are communicating what you intend. You may know what you
>
> want to say but may not say it! Sometimes we forget that not everyone
> else
> has the grasp of the subject we have. The reason we are writing is
> because
> we have a better grasp of the subject than others and a desire to share
> this
> knowledge or perspective. An objective look can help accomplish the goal
> of
> answering questions, rather than creating more! (smile) I know I have
> read
> some pieces that left me scratching my head!
