Guy Cook planned to spend a couple of weeks documenting grammar and writing tips acquired while completing his first novel. A year later, the result is this comprehensive and engaging guide. Geeky at times, light-hearted and informative, it traverses the landscape of style and writing guides, and attempts to resolve their ambiguities. A cast of dogs and squirrels help with the examples.
Subjects covered include hyphens, commas, dashes, speech and quotations, parts of speech, literary devices and the basics of good writing—plus much else.
