There are thousands of websites that contain useful information for authors. I’m going to post a series of sites that can help writers in their never ending quest to improve their craft. I will typically post three at a time. Let me know if you have any suggestions!
- http://www.economist.com/styleguide/introduction
The Economist publishes a well-established magazine filled with the news of the day, in depth. Their style guide is rather famous, and when they upgraded their website, it caused quite a stir when the style guide wasn’t available. The opening recommendations alone are worth the click. - www.theslot.com
The brainchild of Bill Walsh, the copy editor of the Washington Post. The blog has not been updated for a few months, but if you poke around, there are many tips and suggestions for learning how to copy edit your own work. - owl.english.purdue.edu
Part of Perdue University, the Owl contains a wealth of information for all types of writers, including crafting curriculum vitae and grammar, including those pesky comma rules, parts of speech, and suggestions for improving your own writing skills. I should brush up so I don’t include the word include twice in a sentence, like I just included in this one.
