     General Notes of Caution (things to keep in mind when typing your final drafts)

  1. Directly cite any information from your research: (not just on "Works Cited" page).
  2. Write your paper from your bullet notes, not while looking at your source material.
  3. Remember that your paper should "sound like you", not like your source material.
