While it's not a strict rule, many writers are advised against proofreading their own work because they may overlook errors due to familiarity with the text. This can lead to missed typos, grammatical mistakes, or awkward phrasing. Having a fresh set of eyes—whether from a colleague, editor, or professional proofreader—can help catch issues that the original writer might miss. Ultimately, this practice enhances the quality and clarity of the final publication.
