Check for Errors

Writers are human—a fact that begets errors. As a professional—the image you must project to become a working screenwriter—you are the person responsible for your work's clarity. Proofread with a clear head. Spellcheckers help, but don't catch everything. Study your words for errors (including homonyms), make notes, and then clean up your mistakes.
