Re: February Topic -Your credibility as a reviewer 
My reviews are more about reacting to the substance and content of the writing, rather than dealing with mechanical corrections.

If I see a word missing, I would point that out. Otherwise, my review would be a repetition of corrections already sent by reviewers more versed in grammar.

I do preview the review in the review tool, but sometimes I still miss things and make mistakes. I don't worry too much about that, although I want it to be presentable.

If I focus on the review too much I won't enjoy it or do it as often.
My primary goal in public reviewing is to present my take on the writing in a way that gets other reviewers to read the work to see what they think.

Writers should take me seriously because I took the time to read and comment, and because I buy a lot of books.

This is a lovely image for me from Lizco252!
