Plagiarism

Writing is difficult, and being a good writer involves count- less skills. Besides spelling and grammar, which seem like enough to worry about, good writing involves finding your writ- ing voice, expressing your own ideas, and in many cases incor- porating other people’s ideas into the mix. When you need to support your opinion with the ideas and expertise of others, writ- ing gets even more difficult, becomes more time-consuming, and plagiarism becomes very tempting.
