Revising, Revising, and Reading

How do you revise and fine tune your editorial for reading it out loud?

1. Look at your paragraphs. Are all the capital letters there? How about the periods and commas. They're there so when you read, you know where to take a breath. You pause briefly at periods.

2. Reread your editorial. Are you happy with it? Are you excited to read it to someone else? If not, why? Did you prove your point? Did the real you come through?

3. If you can't answer yes to any of these questions, you still have time to revise!

4. Go over the previous blogs, see if they can help you. You can always see me during class or during AIS.
