Look through your paper. Find your comma mistakes. Rewrite the sentence that you punctuated incorrectly. Tell which LIES you are applying.

NOTE: The only thing worse than omitting a needed comma is including one that is not needed. Extra commas slow the reader down. Use a comma only when you have a reason.

NEVER SEPARATE THE SUBJECT FROM THE VERB OR THE VERB FROM THE DIRECT OBJECT WITH A SINGLE COMMA.
