It's hard enough making these decisions when you're editing your own work isn't it? If you're responsible for editing the work of others, it can be a nightmare.
Everyone you ask will have opinions. Often, though, no one will be able to justify these opinions with anything more convincing than "When I was at school my teacher said ...".
This e-book will provide you with two very important things:
the knowledge with which to provide good and justifiable answers to these (and similar) questions; and
the skills with which to apply this knowledge to practical situations in your workplace.

TESTIMONIAL
"I purchased your book, Better Writing Skills, and find it to be very comprehensive. I'm teaching a writing class and was able to use the book from the first day. I thought I knew a lot, but this book has reinforced what I knew and taught me a few things.
I like the organization of it and especially the tips. They stand out, so that when I'm teaching, I can quickly refer to the tips without reading the full page, which really helps. Thanks for a job well done!"
