Why not proof reading, is like jumping out of bed and putting close on.

Everyone in some point of their life has just jumped out of bed, tossed on clothes, and ran out the door to work, school or run errands. Most of the time you can tell who that person is just be looking at them. Hair is messed up, clothes look slop or wrinkled, sleeping marks still on the side of their face, and the bad breath they are breathing on you.

As goes in writing it’s a lot in the same way. Someone that does not proof read their work prior to posing, publishing or turning it in looks slopy. You can tell that someone didn’t proofread their work in a multitude of ways. Spelling and punctuation are one of the best indicators that they did not proofread. In my experience this is one of the most common things you will find. Another way you can tell that it was not proof read is that there is a break or unfinished thought in the writing. Of course, there are many more ways, but we will just stick with those two for now.

Let’s take a look at a writing that was not proof read before it was turned in or published. In this cane that paper is lacking in full thoughts and does not connect into the next thought that is stated.

Example:

The internet is a great tool for finding out the information or answers you want. Some times it might be difficult to find what you are looking for. Just make sure that you are thinking of what you want to know and searching for it right.

A proper way to have written the statement above would be to add more details, talk the reader through in a more step-by-step form to help them know, what to do and how to find what hey are looking for.

Example:

The internet is a wonderful tool for finding the answers and knowledge you seek, but be sure to think about how you ask the question for the answer you seek. The proper wording to when you type your search, it is key to what the search will return. For instance, say you want to know the best way to bake bread and you type in, best way to make bread. There should be a lot of searches that will come back with many different ways to make multiple types of bread. A better way to have worded that would have been, what is the best way to make sour dough bread. It’s all in the details you give, that will bring back the best results in your search.
