Editing

The DK Handbook was interesting to read through for ideas on editing. It suggested printing out the paper and actually looking over a hard copy. I agree that it can be really helpful because for me it's easier to glance over mistakes on the computer screen.

For editing the hardest thing for me was making sure MLA style was correct because in high school english I didn't do many typed papers, we always wrote in-class essays and they were intended to be more of a "rough draft" style. Multiple edits were a new idea to me but you do catch more mistakes every time and reading the paper aloud helped me to catch things that didn't "sound right".
