Chapter 6: Advanced Writing Mistakes
Whatever is worth doing at all should be done with the whole of your
strength. It is good to be able to speak at least
basic English language for
your daily needs. However, there is no reason
why you should not aim at
becoming an excellent writer and speaker of the language. It is important to
note that you don’t have to have a degree in the English language to be able
to speak fluently or write excellently in it. All you need is the drive to learn
and acquire grammatical and writing skills.
In this last chapter, we will explore advanced mistakes that even professional
writers make when writing. The beautiful thing about knowing what not to do
is that it will enable you to know what to do. Hence, knowing these mistakes
will not only help you avoid them but write standard articles. If you have a
dream to be an author or writer, this chapter is very critical for you. It is one
thing to be able to spot spelling errors; it is quite another to spot issues that
have to do with grammatical constructions.
