Alright, I'm random and inconsequential, I know, but is this sentence structure acceptable in formal writings, i.e. news articles or journalistic thesis entries?

The 'about' clause, I mean; we all say and write things that end in prepositions, but unless strictly taught not to do so, we can't help but keep erring back to the familiar. Is it wrong or weird to see this, or I am solitary in this thinking?

So, what would be a proper alternative to this sentence in which I am writing about? (now)
