Did I proofread my writing for spelling errors?

Does the first letter of each new sentence, as well as each proper noun (the names of people, places and things) begin with a capital letter?

Is “I” always capitalized?

Does every sentence end in a period (.), question mark (?) or exclamation point (!)?

Did I put one space between each word and two spaces after each period and between all sentences?
