Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Writing But Were Afraid to Ask
Book details
Summary
Description
This is a guide for all writers. Many writers today are not really sure how to use a comma, but it's not their fault. (No, it doesn't go where you think there should be a pause.) The basics haven't been taught in public schools for more than 50 years, and the result is a stigmatized and semi-literate society. Not only does this book explain why that happened, it will fill in the missing blanks for writers across the spectrum: Grammar basics; Structure; Punctuation; Cognitive Development and Literacy; and definitive approaches to Creative and Academic Writing. This textbook/workbook grew out of my college teaching years and has been informed by my own experiences as an author, editor, and publisher. Whether you need to brush up on grammar basics or want to understand the big picture regarding Academic versus Creative writing styles, I've covered the essentials.This book is a work in progress, and improvements may be made if you can suggest any.
