Re:Article for critique - 06/28/2007
Thank you for the great breakdown in your critique of my article. I have had a problem with punctuation for quite so time. Though the rules you are stating here are not really new ones, in some cases the accepted forms keep changing.
I see your point about the passive nature of some sentences. I tend to try to be a little overly general sometimes. If I didn't ask other writers for these critiques (caught myself on another passive reference), I would not be learning the things I do. And, I'll admit it sometimes takes several times of making the same mistake before it finally sinks in. Don't some teachers now go by the opinions "what is learned first is learned best"? I believe that to be true, but I also believe in learning from mistakes. So never feel that you need to hold back on critiquing my work. Just don't get personal with it. LOL
Don't worry, never thought you would get personal.
Sometimes I try too hard and in the process make a bit of a mess, that's another reason why I welcome critiques.
Finally, but not all inclusive, I am wordy and I do try to work on it, but I seldom seem to trim quite enough. LOL
