Foundation is important, and I'm not talking about makeup ladies


The blog I thought was the most helpful of the 3 was JPROF: The grammar. Spelling punctuation and diction study guide because it deals with the fundamentals of writing. People might want a really nice car or a nice home, but if the foundation isn't solidified, if the bolts, nuts, and screws aren't tightened enough, the nice car turned into a nice pile of metal. Without the proper foundation, the million dollar home can’t even stand a gust of wind or it will disassemble itself due to the fact that the ground it was built on was sand instead of concrete. The tips I found helpful were grouped up in the “Sentence errors” and “word choice,” and the reason why I just grouped them all in one instead of nit-picking certain tips was not because I make all of the mistakes with each example given, but more of polishing what I know and trying to change how I write because I get a sense that sometimes when I write, it sounds the same as how I talk, which is pretty much redundant and filled with errors. The way I would apply it is by practicing and polishing these weak points in my writing, and once these specific areas have been improved, then I will just apply them right into my writing like a painter would add paint to their portrait, in their own creative way.
