Using proofreaders

  • Aim to choose people that are not trained to proofread and ask them to highlight the stuff they find confusing.
  • Ask them to note the moment when their minds start to wander while they're reading your material. Opt to take those parts out.

  • Ask them which parts they would cut off (10-20%) if they had to cut something.
