Free University Writing Center Links

There are at least a dozen good on-line writing centers. Take some time to familiarize yourself with each of them. When you find a topic (like misplaced modifier) that causes you trouble, you can see several different examples by reviewing what each has to say.

A well organized place to start is A Guide to Grammar and Writing by Charles Darling, professor of English/Humanities at Capital Community-Technical College.

The Purdue University Writing Lab recently expanded to include Resources for Writers . Browse this site and be sure to click on index of handout for over 100 documents on writing skills.

Other sites you should at least review are:

• Univ. of Victoria Writer's Guide
• Empire State College: The Writer's Complex
• LEO (literacy education online) from St. Cloud St. University takes a different approach that you might find interesting.
• Rensselaer Writing Center, a very complehensive set of handouts
• Univ. of Texas Writing Center
• Univ. of Michigan OWL
• Gilchrist's Page for Essays, Research Papers, and English Studies at Indiana State University.
