Packed with fun examples, this book shows you how to: </p><ul><li>Keep spellings straight: <em>capital</em> and <em>capitol</em>, <em> stationary</em> and <em>stationery, forego</em> and<em> forgo</em>, etc.</li><li>Avoid comma splices and grocer's apostrophes.</li><li>Pluralize last names.</li><li>Understand when to use <em>fewer</em> instead of<em> less</em>.</li><li>Use<em> i.e.</em> and<em> e.g.</em> correctly.</li><li>Know when-and when not-to capitalize<em> mom</em> and <em>dad.</em></li></ul><p>These little lessons are amusing, irreverent, memorable, and nothing like any English class you've ever attended. Before long, you'll feel more confident in your writing and notice that you're enjoying it more than ever.</p><p>Get one book for yourself and a few extras for: </p><ul><li>Your retired-English-teacher mother.</li><li>Your nephew who's heading to college.</li><li>Your friend who wants to write her memoir.</li><li>That coworker who always says <em>antidote</em> when he means <em>anecdote.</em></li></ul><p>Please note that<em> occasionally, </em> this book leans a little racy, so it's probably most appropriate for teenagers and grownups.</p><p><br></p>
