Writing Issues

May 6th, 2010

1. Passive voice – I’ve noticed in a lot of my quizzes, specifically the on midterm lead and 2nd paragraph and the ABZ fraternity story, I would go back and forth with using passive voice.

2.  Kicker – Throughout a lot of my news stories, I feel like my kickers are always really boring! Specifically, that was something I needed to work on and change in the final draft of my feature.

3. Numbers – I confuse the rules of numbers in a lot of my quiz’s.  For example, when to use the actual number versus spelling out the number (whether it depends on how high the number is or whether the number is at the beginning or middle of the sentence).

    Also, apostrophes almost never make plurals! The plural of quiz is quizzes. 6/6
