I used to be one of those nerdy kids sent on writing camps at school. At the camp we’d study our favourite authors, learn how to craft poetry, and (of course) brush up on the fundamentals of grammar and punctuation.
I’m ashamed to say, but in this day and age of spell checks, auto-fill and abbreviated communication, that I’ve forgotten some of the basics. Luckily, one of my favourite blogs Daily Writing Tips has just posted English Grammar 101: All You Need to Know.
It’s a great refresher. Read it and remember the difference between a proper noun and an abstract noun, use articles correctly, and always write in an active voice.
I hope you find it as useful as I have.
