Your writing is about to be stylin'

Style is something we all have an innate ability to use and hear. Sometimes it can be difficult to explain why a sentence sounds wordy, repetitive, or just not right. There are multitudes of styles out there to write anything from technical research papers to funny articles meant to be a joke. Learning to truly use these styles are the appropriate times and what they encompass will allow for a more specific and clear paper that serves a greater influence in the purpose it is written for. As our culture has evolved, being “politically correct” has become increasingly important. Using gender neutral nouns and racially correct terms are important to be taken seriously and seen as an educated individual who truly knows what they are writing a paper about. Failure to use these terms could cause your audience to disregard anything you have to say about your topic as you can be viewed as bigoted or even biased. However in the end style plays a less obvious part when reading a paper but when reviewing and editing your paper it plays a vital part that can have a huge influence on how your paper reads and how it affects your audience.

  1. Your post is so serious compared to your title. Try to reflect more on the material and how you feel about it or will apply it rather than summarizing.
