Description
Ever since the first caveman drew a picture of his big kill on the wall, the rules of writing have been the same: make sure your readers know what you're trying to say.
Get it Right offers tips on punctuation, words, usage, and other writing wisdom from a veteran editor in easy-to-understand language. This writing guide not only covers common mistakes and rules, but also has a liberal dose of cranky peeves from someone who's spent 30 years in a newsroom(and is also a freelance book editor).
Get it Right boils down the bull and gets to the point, avoiding fancy terminology in favor of clear explanations.
The hallmarks of good news writing have always been clarity and accuracy. But you don't have to be a journalist to benefit from the wisdom of the newsroom. You just have to want to write well.
Want a hug? Wrong book. Want to get it right? Let's talk.
