If you write in a program like Microsoft Word, it should automatically check your document for basic errors. There are also several online software programs that can help you edit your writing. You can either copy and paste your article into one of these websites or add it as an extension on your browser. That way, the app can automatically proofread everything you write. Some popular tools include Grammarly, Ginger, ProWritingAid, and Hemingway. These tools can catch spelling errors, help correct your grammar, and can even help you make your writing more concise. Even though technology is helpful, don't rely on it completely. During the editing process, you need to read your own work carefully so that you can look for ways to improve. Maybe you need better transitions between topics or you forgot to cite a source. Software cannot help you catch those problems. Read for different issues each time you look over your article. For instance, the first time you might focus on catching stylistic errors. On your next read through, focus on making sure that you have the tone right. Read the article out loud to yourself. This can help you hear phrases that don't sound quite right. It can boost your confidence if you get some feedback before publishing your article. Ask a trusted friend or family member to look over your work. Just make sure that you are receptive to any constructive criticism that they offer. You can say, "Taylor, would you mind reading this article I wrote? I'd love your feedback. If you have time to look it over, I'd appreciate it." After you're done reading and getting feedback, apply what you've learned. If your friend suggested that you add a personal example, this is the time to add that in. After you've corrected any errors and made sure that you're happy with your article, you can submit it. It can be really hard to make cuts to something you've worked hard on. But there are usually spots that you can trim down. Look for any repetition or any examples that aren't that helpful. You can also look for places to make your writing more concise. Typically, readers respond best to streamlined articles. Instead of saying, "Because fall has nice crisp weather and many people like to watch football and eat pie, Thanksgiving has become a cherished tradition in the homes of many, many people," you could say, "Crisp weather, football, and pie are just a few reasons that people love Thanksgiving!"

summary: Use spell-checking software to catch any errors. Read the article multiple times to find flaws. Ask a friend or family member for their opinion. Make any necessary changes. Edit out unnecessary information.

Use your ruler to draw a baseline, using light pressure to create a faint line. Above the baseline, draw your x-height line where you'd like your lowercase letters to peak, and then draw your cap height line where you'd like your capital letters to end. If your design will require more than one line of text, then you will want to draw guidelines for each line of text. If you want your letters to appear in a shape, such as a banner, heart, or cloud, you will also draw this shape when drawing your guidelines. Use your ruler to draw horizontal lines that will block off where your letters will appear on the page. You can draw the lines straight or at an angle, depending on what works best for your design. The space between the lines should fit one or two letters as you plan to draw them. The purpose of the horizontal lines it to help your draw all of your letters the same size and with the same spacing. Redraw the design that you chose from the sketching phase. Use the guidelines to space out your design. Start with just an outline, then slowly build up your piece. Don't start adding to your letters or inking them until you've completed a basic outline drawing. Add to your letters, making them thicker or more fleshed out, depending on your selected design. This step is where you will add thicker curves, bolder lines, and heavier strokes. Don't use too much graphite on the parts you want to color with ink because the pencil can smear or make it harder for you to ink the piece. You can add design quirks to your letters, and you can add other elements to the phrase you chose. Example embellishments that are common in hand lettering include arrows, stars, hearts, and large swoops or swirls. You can add whatever embellishments you'd like to create your own design.

summary: Draw your guidelines. Draw evenly spaced horizontal lines to help with spacing. Make a pencil drawing of your selected design. Make your letters thicker and more detailed. Add embellishments to your design.

You can't get divorced in Oregon if you've just moved here. Instead, you must meet at least one of the following conditions: Either spouse has been living in Oregon for at least six months. You married in Oregon and at least one spouse currently resides there. Oregon offers two types of divorce: summary dissolution and regular dissolution. The type you choose will determine which papers you file with the court. Summary dissolution is quicker, and you can file for it if you meet the following: You haven't been married for more than 10 years. You don't have any children together under age 18, or age 18-20 and in school. The wife is not pregnant. You and your spouse don't own any real property, which includes buildings, land, and houses. Together, you own under $30,000 in personal property. (If you have a car, deduct the amount of the car loan from its value.) You don't have combined debts that total more than $15,000. Neither spouse wants spousal support (alimony). You don't want temporary orders other than a family restraining order, such as temporary alimony. You don't have any divorce actions ongoing in another state. Obtain the appropriate forms from the court clerk. You can also download forms from the court's website. Make sure to get everything, including a set of instructions. Generally, you'll need to fill out a petition, summons, and affidavit of service form. If you have children, then you will fill out additional forms. You can get divorced without a lawyer. However, you should hire a lawyer if you have a lot of marital property, or if you expect a child custody dispute. You should also work with a lawyer if you are ever confused about what to do. Some courts have family law facilitators who can help you, but in other courts you are on your own. Get a referral to a divorce lawyer by calling toll-free 800-452-7636 or completing the online form at https://www.osbar.org/public/ris/. If you hire a lawyer, they will fill out your forms, file them, and serve copies on your spouse.
summary: Satisfy the residency requirement. Check if you qualify for summary dissolution. Complete your forms. Hire a divorce lawyer, if necessary.
