Little things!

But they still get on my nerves . . .

Make sure your slug is correct! All lower case. Don't put slug: in front of it. Make sure you're not confusing slugs between different assignments.

If everybody has the exact same slug in the email subject line, then all the emails chain together and there's less of a chance that I will lose track of your email and forget to grade you -- or worse, believe you failed to turn in an assignment!

Also, make sure you title the Word document in which you write! That means putting your name, slug and date in the upper left-hand corner of the actual Word document! If there is no title, after I print out your assignment I won't know who it is from.

Finally, make sure you're double-spacing your work! I need to be able to fit comments into the margins and between lines, so please give me some room with which to do that. Feedback is how you improve in this class; you don't want to limit my feedback, do you?
