Write with Excellence 201, Second Edition is fully compatible with The Chicago Manual of Style, Seventeenth Edition and The Christian Writer's Manual of Style, Fourth Edition! First-rate writers use first-rate grammar, but grammar isn’t an easy skill to learn. The task is now much easier thanks to Joyce K. Ellis’s Write with Excellence 201. Ellis, an award-winning author, has spent a lifetime learning to use proper grammar. And she has shared her insights, serving as the grammar columnist for the Christian Communicator magazine, as a writing instructor at conferences, and as a personal mentor for countless writers. Write with Excellence is a lighthearted handbook that gives new life to her columns. It both teaches and inspires, offering the following elements and more: • three major sections, covering grammar, punctuation, and style • forty-six chapters on everything from defibrillating verbs to avoiding apostrophe abuse • quizzes at the end of each chapter to apply knowledge to one’s own writing • lots of humor, actually making grammar fun.

Ellis’s brilliant, informative, and accessiblebook will save you hundreds of hours of learningeverything the hard way. If you are well alongin your career, this book is guaranteed to teach youthings you didn’t know before. Either way, I adviseyou to keep this book on your shelf, right betweenyour dictionary and your thesaurus. It’s that good."
