I have been most kindly told by my sister that my use of commas, and my pronoun happy usage needs to be fixed PRONTO! I guess that is what I get when I sent her chapters one and two, and told her to bash them to the best of her abitity. I guess I had it coming to me. Darn it if I only made English class a priority throughtout school. But have no fear Purdue is here!
She sent this great site, and by golly I will make it a priority to learn a tip or two or three....or four....or one hundred! See you can teach a semi old dog some new tricks!
Good thing my writing basher is family, I can't be mad with her! Ok all kidding aside I am grateful to have such a talented sister. If you go to my farm blog she is a monthly guest blogger on all things green and horticulture. I know she will give me the non-sugar-coated version of how I did.
See you at the online writing lab at Perdue! Now no laughing I poured my heart out letting the world know my English is not perfect and giving you the link so you can brush up on all things gramatical!
