Assignment #9

1) In my writing, I tend to repeat information or facts that I have already mentioned. This affects my paper by that is shows repetitiveness, and that is not a good thing. I makes my paper look sloppy and unorganized. How I plan to correct this error is by organizing my thoughts better. I plan to avoid this by having more in depth reviews and have many drafts.

2)   Another pattern is that I am not specific in my writing. I do not put enough details and facts in my writing to support my topic. This makes my paper look every short and incomplete. I plan to fix this error is by writing a couple of drafts of my paper to make sure that all topics are covered. Also by showing and not  telling, using more details will help structure my paper.

3) My third error is that I need to use citations more to back up my thesis. Without citations in my paper all my arguments are not as strong as they would be. My paper again would look unorganized and will not get the readers attention. How I plan to correct this is by doing research on my topic. This brings back-ground information, and thus strengthens my paper.
