Sobre IBD

Carolyn Howard-Johnson picks the trip-you-up words that her clients struggle with and puts them in a quick reference guide light enough and small enough to be used as an quickie gift that the recipient can tuck into a glove compartment or purse to keep their homonym skills fresh and explains why following grammar rules assiduously isn't always the best choice for writers."Carolyn Howard-Johnson has created something of unmatched value: usage advice that cuts through the contentious world of grammar to offer real help. Writers polishing their manuscripts and query letters will find Howard-Johnson's guide more useful than Strunk and White."-- JUNE CASAGRANDE, author of Grammar Snobs Are Great Big Meanies (Penguin) and syndicated grammar columnist guru"That so much helpful advice is couched in such light-hearted, easy to read and entertaining prose is due to Howard-Johnson's abilities... "-- MAGDALENA BALL, founder and editor of The Compulsive Reader review"...it's editing books like this that help us get one step closer to writing, and speaking, clearly and succinctly. Five stars."-- DAWN COLCLASURE, author, 365 Tips for Writers"This book is a good investment for all writers, no matter how skilled and experienced they believe they are. And, if you believe you 'could care less,' you really need this book."-- BOYD SUTTON, editor, Wisconsin Writer's Journal"From adapting/adopting to wreak/reek, this book is highly recommended reading for anyone preparing to write pretty much anything -- and a fascinating read in its own right for those who appreciate word-play and the occasionally encountered dilemmas of the English language!"-- JIM COX, Editor-in-Chief, Midwest Book Review"This is a wonderful book that could be used as a reference book in secondary classrooms and writing groups. The book would also be handy during teacher-student writing conferences as a neutral way to discuss word use errors especially."-- CAROLYN WILHELM, curriculum writer, The Wise Owl FactoryLearn more at www.HowToDoItFrugally.comFrom Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.comLAN022000 LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Editing & ProofreadingBUS011000 BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Business Writing
