Proof Reading-The in "Audible" Art FormWritten by Brian Holte
If you are a writer of an ebook you definitely get others to proof-read your work, right? Is proof-reading one of those tasks that if you had option you would rather take garbage out to bottom of driveway and tolerate stench then have to sit down for a session of proof reading (not unless it’s your passion of course)? Because of nature of business and reading required to provide this service those that are proof-readers are normally in great demand. By hiring a proof-reader you have advantage of having someone from “outside” looking over your work thereby increasing chances of your work looking professional, well written and helping make it an even better read. Proof-readers are troopers, long nights, blurry eye’s, a temporarily forgotten spouse...just kidding. So mentally focused on work at hand, seeking mis-spelled words like a heat seeking missle and placing exclamation marks where there should only be periods. Proof-readers are often sought for their services from virtually almost all industries, called on to create sales brochures or promotional pamphlets. Thanks to launch of internet they are more widely accessible. They are called upon from professionals from all walks of life, doctors, lawyers, accountants. If you think about it their like a literary first aid kit, they patch up your grammatical mistakes.

How fast can you write an e-book? Though Jim Edwards and I wrote a #1 best-selling e-book titled "How to Write and Publish Your Own OUTRAGEOUSLY Profitable e-Book in as little as 7 days," you can do it even quicker than 7 days. How? Here are at least three ways: 1. Don't write it. That is, speak your book and then transcribe it using a service such as www.idictate.com. Or use one of voice recognition software out there, such as Dragon Naturally Speaking. Either way, if you're more comfortable speaking rather than writing, speak your book first. 2. Coauthor it. You can make yourself almost instantly famous by associating yourself with someone who is already famous. Jim Edwards came to me over two years ago and asked to coauthor a book with me. He said he would do most of work. I agreed. The result was e-book I mentioned above, which continues to be a bestseller. Since then, Jim is now a recognized authority in his own right and has written several other e-books.
