[Stylist] Proof Reading using a Braille display?

[Tessa]

I use a braille sense both to write on and to proof my writing and read and comment on the writing of other people.
The sense has both audio and braille so I often read a piece more than once. The first time using audio I read for the over all impression. The second time I add in comments and the third time I turn the audio off and read strictly in braille. It helps me to catch typos and is more focused than audio. I really need the braille when doing my own work because of course you know what you intended saying and sometimes you miss things with the audio. That being said I still have been known to miss a few things, capital signs and mixing up words and such. But I definitely find a braille display has improved my proof reading tremendously.
