Top Ten Ways to Avoid Plagiarism in a Written Work
I'm including stories of any kind, reports, essays, pretty much anything you're writing out.The Top Ten
1 Use an online checker
I suggest checking out a list on the better ones.
2 Reread your work
Rereading and revising papers is a lifesaver. Trust me.
3 Go over what you recently read
Once I almost plagiarized Wings of Fire in a school project. No kidding.
4 Have a friend with similar interests read it
They might find something.
5 Know what movies you recently watched
6 Go back to media in old memories
7 Know the difference between plagiarism and inspiration
I'm looking at you, Cyri. Not because you do this, but because you taught me.
8 Write two or more drafts
Again with revising. You're going to find mistakes and fix them.
I hate planning, but okay.
9 Think before you type
Don't just type long walls of text while half asleep. I make this mistake sometimes. I almost am now.
This was a life saver.
10 Read into your fandoms yet again
The Contenders
11 Don't Copy Your Sources!
Obviously. Sadly some of my classmates still don't understand this concept.
