How do you edit your works in writing?

I have lots of writing activities. Before I submit those writings, I check it myself and then I also ask my friends to check it for me. However, it is not all the time that my friends can proofread my work. Because of that, I look for some site in the internet which can help me identify my errors. I found some but they all require payments.So, sometimes, it just ended up that I proofread my work myself.Anyway, how do you handle your writing activities? How do you make sure that is grammatically correct and pleasing enough to read?

since i do not have anyone whom i can trust editing my work, this is what i do. after writing something, i leave it for a while. i do something that takes away my mind to what i wrote. i play basketball, i go out with friends, i watch movies, i travel, etc. and then, near the deadline, i go back to my work. with a fresh mind and new perspective, i am able to inject new ideas and improve on it. goodluck.

That is great! I do that too sometimes but I still want others to review my work because I think I still need to study more on English to arrive in an impeccable writing.

I actually write then and there on the spot and read it two or three times and correct the errors.
