AAAWWUBBIS: When a Complete Sentence Simply Isn't Enough
When we join dependent clauses to independent clauses, we create a more interesting sentence! (By the way, that was an AAAWWUBBIS sentence!) #ACADEMIC

Cake is good, but cake with frosting is better. It's the same with the sentences we write. Plain, boring sentences are okay, and they may even get the point across, but are we losing our readers' interest in the process? Check out the example below. SENTENCE 1: Mom realized that we were out of several ingredients. (Simple Sentence - BORING!) SENTENCE 2: Mom went to the store and bought everything we needed to bake a cake. (Simple Sentence - BORING!) AAAWWUBBIFIED SENTENCE: When she realized that we were out of several ingredients, Mom went to the store and bought everything we needed to bake a cake. (Complex Sentence - FAR MORE INTERESTING TO YOUR READER!) Students should be fully comfortable with writing complete sentences in order for this class to be beneficial. Remember, we are all expanding our knowledge together (including the teacher). I'm looking forward to learning with you! Mrs. Rae Marie (M.Ed.) (Writing, Poetry, Fantasy Fiction, ACE Educator)

I absolutely love to write and share the joy of writing, and I've taught writing for several years. I understand that writing isn't everyone's cup of tea, so I am beyond happy to share some ways to bring your words to the surface. Oftentimes, it's just a matter of sorting out what's happening in your brain and getting it to come out in the right order. I'm here for you!Reviews
