APA is my favorite because it seems to be the simplest.
As an educator for 35 years, I prided myself on presenting complex ideas in concise, straightforward language. I created or edited thousands of print documents across a variety of formats. After retiring, I decided to open a freelance writing business so I could help others translate their great ideas into professional-looking documents that are powerful, memorable, and error-free.
As a teacher, I had numerous opportunities to evaluate the writing of my students. It wasn't just a matter of grading their assignments, but explaining what they did wrong and showing them how they could improve. I frequently served on school committees that were tasked with preparing reports, scripts, programs, etc., and my tasks often required writing, editing, and proofreading. I have performed the same types of tasks as a volunteer at my church and in my freelance business.
I enjoy making things better than they currently are. Whenever I see a mistake—on a sign, in an advertisement, in an article—it grabs my attention. In some cases, it distracts me so much that I can't follow the message. It is immensely satisfying to me whenever I fix an error or improve the wording, because I know readers will be able to comprehend the main idea more easily.

I love children's books, especially those of Dr. Seuss. My taste in adult literature frequently changes. Emma by Jane Austen and The Last Picture Show by Larry McMurtry are two I enjoy.
I enjoy word games, music, movies, and hiking.
I skim the document to get a feel for the subject matter and the author's style. Next, I highlight all the problem areas and correct mechanical errors. I save the trickier passages for last.
