I took my high schooler to the library for a few hours after dinner, to work on her writing.  She is working on "technical skills", grammar, and editing.  This is a challenge if you haven't written formally, in a while.  I always question myself, "do I put a comma, semicolon, or colon?  Or should I stop here?  Is this a run on?"  So many uncertainities.  "Did I spell that word correctly?"  "Did I shift the verb tense?"  "Do I need to hyphenate this word?" 

Wow!!  College days and papers are so far in the past... over a decade now!  What do I do?  Take a "refresher courses for grammar"?  Or do I just buy several "reference books" for writers?

I checked out about a dozen "writing" books tonight!  I'll be in review-mode for several weeks!  I suppose I'll be re-learning as I teach it!

What do ya'll do? 

Anyone know of wonderful websites for this writing adventure?
