My New Paper

For my new paper, I've decided to redo my literary analysis. I've decided to work on sentence fluency and conventions. My voice is fine in the paper, along with, my word choice. I worked on my organization with an outline, required in class. Dr. D says that my ideas are great with a strong argument and well supported evidence.
The two aspects of my paper that I choose to edit are sentence fluency and conventions. The reason I chose to work on sentence fluency of my paper because there are quotes that are independent. Quotations are the main issue with sentence fluency. I also chose conventions because a few times, I put the quotations inside the period. Also, I have one comma splice. The conventions I messed up on are major conventions, and that is why I choose to fix them.

  1. My paper was full of comma splices too! I'm definitely going to figure out how to fix them but when I rewrite my literary analysis I'm focusing in on different traits... Goodluck with yours!

  2. Morgan, your plan sounds good. Remember that if you focus on conventions, you will need to go beyond just fixing the problems in the paper.
