Final Post, 10//04/09

Two common mistakes that I always find in my works are that I fail to proofread and I usually have a few run-on sentences. To tackle both of these problems is difficult because I must proofread first before I can find my run-on sentences.

A website that I found that doesn’t really give you any tricks or distinctions to proofreading, but kind of an informative instruction that explains why proofreading is effective and how to proofread effectively. http://www.unc.edu/depts/wcweb/handouts/proofread.html

The Next website that I found was the BEST because it had lots of examples about how to identify run-on sentences and then eliminate them. http://esl.fis.edu/learners/advice/syntax.htm. There were many other websites that I quickly glanced over, but none of them caught my eye to the point where I really wanted to read the article like this website did.
