Assignment # 3 what makes a "good" paper?!

Rules of writing makes the differences between an A paper and a C paper. 

Focus on a main idea

Focusing on a main point makes a paper clearly understandable to a reader. It’s important to focus on the main idea when you start writing first sentence of the paragraph. It should include a well-written topic sentence and summary that gives a reader a brief statement to understand. Also sentences and paragraphs have to be related. When someone reads an A paper you don’t have to allow them to ask a question “what are they talking about?” or “ why this sentence relates here?” when readers ask this kind of questions, that means that your paper isn’t as clear as you think. So without focusing on a main idea an A paper might turn to C paper. 

Punctuation

The marks, such as period, comma, semicolon etc. use in writing to separate sentences to clarify meaning. Not knowing proper use of punctuation, where and when to write marks, you may end up by making run-on sentence mistakes or comma splices. So when writing, you may not think where use comma or period. You just write period when sentence end ups, or comma when you think it sounds okay. But by not knowing punctuation rule correctly it may bring your paper in a very poor writing, which also occurs other mistakes. 

Verb tenses 

Using suitable verb forms in writing essays are also very important. So when writing in past tense it has to stay in past. By switching tenses you may lose your reader. It can be misunderstand able for the readers what you were writing about. Changing verb forms it breaks the connection within the sentences and paragraphs. 

When reading an A paper, all of the above specific qualities must be include to make an effective paper, and not end up with C or lower grade. 

For me most hard to focus is on run-on sentences. I often don’t recognize when the sentence has to be independent clauses or joined with others. Sometimes I’m just not linking together sentences correctly.
