Typo check
You can't ask people to proofread your articles - that's your job.
If you have one article you think needs improving, then post the link.

You can also switch on spell check in your browser.
Personally, I would never type straight into the capsule, as, too often, a glitch or an inadvertent 'click away' causes much despondency
I write into Scrivener (highly recommended for any writer), which corrects as you type. Then the writing is copied into Hubpages, or Word depending where the piece is headed.
