Retailers Gotta Know More About Writing Now They're Blogging

Yay! My new little help for writers is on Amazon in all its chartreuse, red, and yellow glory!

I am on a one-woman campaign to make better writers of my fellow retailers. We often handle our own advertising and now, of course, there is the Web. Newsletters. Blogging. So we need skills beyond the grammar we learned in high school and the test-taking skills we needed in college.

So now, you can now order a copy of this booklet to put in your briefcase and read on the fly! It’s the Great Little Last-Minute Editing Tips for Writers: The Ultimate Frugal Booklet for Avoiding Word Trippers and Crafting Gatekeeper-Perfect Copy.
Notice that this is a booklet. It isn’t intended to be a complete reference for every sneaky homonym in the English language. For one thing there is a nice list of those pesky guys in The Frugal Editor (http://budurl.com/TheFrugalEditor). It’s small partly because it isn’t intended to be drudgery. It’s only 54 pages, so it’s a small, easy-to-read dose of some of the most difficult word trippers, not the ones you learned in the fourth grade. And it is written with a bit of humor to brighten the experience. If you don’t learn anything from it, send it back to me and I’ll refund your money.
Buy the paperback at http://budurl.com/WordTrippersPB. It is only $6.95. You support a friend (me!) and you brush up on skills for your writing career. It's will soon be available for Kindle, too. What could be better than that?
