Two tips for the self-editing process. One, spell check every time you rewrite a sentence or a paragraph. In Word, it is as simple as block+F7. Two, read you work in extra large font (maybe 150%). You will see the words differently.
Nothing is perfect and none of this helps with content editing. I re-read my novel umpteen times but it was my wife who spotted an incorrect character's name at a critical moment in the plot. Hard to get all those nits picked.
