The cellular telephone has ruined language and writing, plus make folks lazy writers.

What I mean by proper English:
Use proper punctuation and use of. A sentence ends with a period (.), question mark (?), or and exclamation (!). It does not in with quotes, especially when used around a non-sentence.

A sentence begins with capitalization, unless in some cases a list is somewhat acceptable.

Be aware of coma splices! Several ideas can't be forced into one sentence unless great care is taken. Please see this: How to use a semicolon - The Oatmeal

Also, use paragraphs to make the independent ideas separate. A paragraph is basically an idea backed up. The next idea and backup gets separated. This makes it much easier to read an comprehend.

I am by no means an expert, but figure this may help.
