The author discusses some common errors they have made in their writing such as misusing commas, using tentative language, and incorrectly using "that" instead of "who" or "whom." They also used to incorrectly use "you" but have worked to remove that from their writing. To address these issues, the author has been using online grammar resources and taking more time to analyze topics to write with more confidence and avoid these errors going forward.

A few of the errors I have made while writing my papers are misuse of commas, being too tentative, and using that instead of who or whom. Also, in the beginning, I used you in my papers, but I have worked hard to make sure I do not use you anymore. I am working hard on fixing these problems in my writing. For example, I have been using OWL and grammar girl to remind me the rules for commas. In one of my papers, I was too tentative; I used a lot of seems. I was not confident in my paper, because I was having a hard time in analyzing the stories, for they were very complex and I did not have a lot of time in which to do this. One way I am fixing this, is giving myself more time to analyze stories and to have confidence in my papers. A few other mistakes I have made are commas, using you, and using that instead of who or whom. For my comma mistakes, I will be using OWL and grammar girl to remind me the rules for commas. As for using you in papers, I have begun to make sure while editing to search for any you and rewriting that part of my paper. Lastly, for using that instead of whom or who I will try to stop using that too much, and being more specific. In the beginning, I used you in my papers, but I have worked hard to make sure I do not use you any more. A few of the other errors I have made while writing my papers are commas, being too tentative, and using that instead of who or whom. I will continue to work on these problems that I have been caught committing in my papers.
