Challenges of a Paper

A writer will face many challenges when writing a paper. Three challenges I encounter are; choosing a topic, staying on target, and finding minor errors.

Finding minor errors can be accomplished by using a grammar check and carefully proofreading the document. Slowly reading each line and concentrating on grammar instead of what has been written is most important. If the writer rushes through...
