About the Book

OMG: Don't write like you talk! We live in a culture saturated by improper English and grammar where continual text messages, incoherent posts on Twitter or Facebook, and poorly written e-mails pass as writing. Well, time to toss out those embarrassing grammar errors and change your 'naughty' (a.k.a. lazy) writing ways. Smart girls who are ready to improve their writing will not only laugh their way through this funny, entertaining, and informative book, but also learn tips and tricks so they can stand out from the spelling- and grammar-error crowd and earn a promotion, earn the respect of their peers with beautifully written e-mails, impress the boss with well-written reports, and polish their writing skills. "Don't Write Like You Talk" helps writers of all skill levels understand basic principles to improve all writing, from e-mails to blogs and from short stories to novels.
