A Checklist for Correcting Errors. Chapter 12, "Correcting Common Errors," includes as alphabetical listing of twenty-five common stumbling blocks and advice on correcting them.

A Thorough Introduction to the Writing Process. Part One guides you through the writing process―and includes a brief but informative section on how to construct a persuasive argument.
