Here are some great websites
to assist you with writing and grammar.

Purdue University
You will never find a more useful site than this one, with everything
from advice on mechanics and rhetoric to exercises for improving your
skills to advice on conducting research. It also provides links to other
useful sites. Whatever you are looking for you will find here... and
much, much, more. I still can't believe it's free.
The
Elements of Style, William Strunk and E.B. White
This is an on-line version of the most popular writing, grammar, and
usage manual in history. I recommend that you start here as you work
to perfect your editing skills. Excellent examples help you to understand
each concept.
