Shout It Out!

It’s so easy to make mistakes in your writing, whether it’s missing full stops, an extra word, stilted sentences or a comma in the wrong place.

An excellent way for highlighting those mistakes is to read your work aloud. You’ll soon see where a full stop should go or if you’ve repeated the odd word. As you read aloud, you’ll find yourself stopping and having to go over passages again if the writing doesn’t flow or if a comma has crept in where it shouldn’t.
