Writing Resources
Nobody writes perfectly the first time around. Good, polished writing takes time,
and often this means working on several drafts by revising, editing, and proofreading. This
site has been constructed to help you work on your writing and proofreading skills
at your own pace, outside of classroom time.
Under Writing Handouts and Exercises you can find links to to explanations and exercises.
Each page will give you simplified rules that you can apply to your own writing.
If you find yourself still struggling after looking at the explanation and doing the
exercises, make sure to talk to your instructor.
Writing Resources also includes a variety of informational sites related to research
and documentation.
