Friday, May 28, 2010. Something more to think about. Chapter 14 gave me something more to think about when writing. I was specifically taken by the section on sentence rhythm. I always. When a good peace of writing has a rhythmic. Sense to it. However, I simply thought that is what good writers do. I failed to realize. That this is a developed skill. And I was particularly.

Wednesday, May 26, 2010. Punctuation Full of Purpose. Explanatory materials, while parentheses are used to downplay. Those same materials. I now realize that every time I used parentheses in the past to expand on an idea, the use of dashes would have been more effective at conveying the importance of the additional information to the reader. Oh well. You live and you learn. At least I now have a resource if I have any questions about punctuation in the future. Posted by Zachery Smith @ 6:47 PM. Language ...

Friday, May 28, 2010. This class has really helped me to become aware of what I can do with my writing. There is more to writing a paper than just putting your thoughts on paper. The writer, I now see, can take the time to use grammar and punctuation to emphasize or highlight certain content without the reader being able to notice. Grammar can be used blatantly with punctuation like dashes or more subtly with punctuation like commas. Posted by Kristin Placek @ 6:55 PM. Deciding Which Strategies to Use.

Wednesday, May 28, 2008. I read this section and became totally overwhelmed! I think I'm the opposite of the majority in that I'm fine using semicolons and dashes and actually like to use them when their effects are appropriate. But I use way too many commas, and don't really know when to use or not to use them, most likely because I never knew the real rules. I also always wondered about hyphenating things, so now I know!

As a former writing consultant and current newspaper copyeditor, it has become ingrained in my subconscious to correct improper sentences.
