Steps:

1. Capitalization: Every word that starts a sentence should be capitalized. All proper nouns should be capitalized. If a word is capitalized when it shouldn't be, fix it!
2. End marks: At the end of every sentence, there should be a period or another end mark (! or ?).
3. Spelling: Check for errors. Sometimes letters get mixed up too, so those letters need to be moved (transpose).
4. Commas: Use commas for lists (oranges, apples, bananas), to set apart two adjectives (the strong, handsome man), or to begin a second part of the sentence (I wanted to eat, but I needed to go to the meeting first).

5. Reading through the story: Does it make sense? Does it have enough detail?
