March 8th is National Proofreading Day (Allegedly)!

National Proofreading Day promotes error-free writing and communication to enhance a professional and personal image. The national events include a daily countdown with 30 Proofreading Tips in 30 Days on Twitter. The National Proofreading Day Facebook page promotes accuracy in communication while allowing the community to share funny typos, tell a favorite proofreading story, and connect with people who have Red Pen Syndrome.

So in honor of the day, be a friend and proofread a friend’s blog, essay, or other work!!
