The best and most import hack of them all. Surround yourself with great friends that you care about and they care about you.

Not only a proofreader, you can have some fun times laughing and making humour of your dyslexic works. They’re a good sounding board for understanding the issue non-dyslexics have with things and highlighting your positive traits.
