The correct phrase is "write properly." You also note the importance of putting "apostrophe's [sic]" in the right places. I could not agree more but your use of an apostrophe in the word apostrophe's indicates the word is either possessive or that it's a contraction. It is neither. The word apostrophe in your sentence is plural and should not contain an apostrophe. Your errors highlight the importance of proofreading. Congratulations on being named one of National Geographic's Adventurers of the Year. Cheers!
