If I have to choose one, I would say APA is my favorite referencing style.
I have journeyed through several different chapters in my working life so far, with the latest one in retail sales. When the pandemic turned the world inside out, I looked online for ideas to reinvent myself, and I learned about proofreading. I used to be one of those unusual children who enjoyed spelling and grammar at school. I find myself now wanting to correct errors on grocery store signs, restaurant menus, and television commercials. I guess I was just a proofreader waiting to happen!
I have worked in various fields, including a promotion coordinator at a children's publisher (this involved creating and proofreading catalog copy), an assistant to real estate representatives, an acquisitions representative for a department store portrait studio, a chiropractic assistant, a retail salesperson, and a retail manager.
Proofreading is like solving a puzzle. It's great to take those problem pieces and get them to fit in smoothly, which allows the writing to speak well of the author.

The Adrian Mole books by Sue Townsend are my favorite books.
I love reading British police mysteries, making simple baked treats, and watching excellent British television!
I was given some advice by a Knowadays tutor that made sense to me: make a number of passes through a document, looking for different potential problems each time.
