run-ons

“Jake you can’t form sentences this way”. Is what my girlfriend told me as she saw the massive amount of run-on sentences in my Auto ethnography. “Well why not” came out of my stunned face. “You’re trying to force too many independent clauses together under too few periods”. She said and as she said it I knew she was right. So because of this conversation the overjoyed Jacob Martin found a way to improve his writing. YAY!! I used the computer machine to look up the best way to solve this agonizing problem. My first lesion brought me to feel mighty ignorant. Use a period to split the smooched clauses, and knowing when to end a sentence is very important. That was the answer I got it did not satisfy me enough so I dug a little deeper into this conundrum. Getting the definition really help me to better understanding the problem. When a sentence has too many ideas and runs on too long, it is called a run-on sentence. So what makes an idea is where my research went. Well a subject and a verb of course duh. The information did not meet what I was looking for. I then asked myself then if I know all of these things what makes my sentences run on. Then like a ton of bricks it hit me, my adjectives. The wonderful words I use to describe answered the question. So there lay the solution. All I have to do is watch where I put my describing words. In researching this I hope that this problem comes to a halt.
