"So, the bottom line is that whether to use the serial comma is a style issue."11. I actually learned how to use quotation marks. "In the United States, periods and commas go inside the quotation mark." Just like that. In Britain, they go outside.12. How many actually know what [sic] means?

As an engineer, I can use all the help I can get and I'm thankful for such a resource. Look forward to referencing more of her books. I recommend it.Further recommendations: "Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing (Quick & Dirty Tips)" by the same author from which this material came from, "Word Up!

When I'm not writing, I'm editing. I'm a contract editor for a publisher. I also edit for friends and friends of friends in between assignments, and in between those assignments and requests, I edit myself. One thing editing has taught me is to be hyperaware of not making the same mistakes as the writers that I'm editing. While my job is primarily about spotting continuity errors, applying duct tape to plot holes and fact checking, I also try to clean up the grammar and punctuation as much as I can.I've had many writers tell me that they do not remember how to properly use commas and other punctuation marks. I've had some tell me that expecting them to use them between independent clauses isn't required anymore--well it is. I've had others blink at me like a deer in the headlights when I tell them that a semicolon should be used instead when there is no conjunction.I read books on grammar. It's part of my job. It's me making sure that I am not sending my editors a nightmare. You cannot trust Word to put a green line under all your grammatical errors, because when it comes to commas, Word is frequently wrong.This little 99 cent book is wonderful. Grammar Girl breaks punctuation down in plain English, and she gets the message across about how it should be done with simple examples. Any one who writes or edits should buy this book. It will never leave my Kindle.It has replaced English Simplified as my favorite book for punctuation and grammar, and not just because English Simplified is overpriced because it's a textbook. You don't feel like you're in English 101 with some grad student browbeating you for leaving out a comma with Grammar Girl's Punctuation 911. If you write, you can't afford not to buy and read this book.
O.K. this book is useful, but too short. For the price, you can't expect much more anyway. I wanted to give this book 3/4 stars, but gave it full five stars because the author refers to 'Punctuate it Right' classic book (by Harry Shaw) that is available to download in Mobi format, totally free of cost. Just Google .... (Did you notice the four dots there? That's three dots followed by a period, something I learned in this book.) If you have a Kindle (or any other ebook reader), you are in luck! I am yet to read the other book, but since it's recommended by a good author, I am sure it must be good too.To the Author: Thank you so much grammar girl - my investment in your book has been paid over and over because of that single suggestion :) Also, I am sure there are many punctuation mistakes in these two paragraphs. If you come across this review, try to point out the mistakes, so that I can increase my ROI even more!
This was a worthwhile read. It gives several examples in each section. The author also points out the difference between UK and U.S.A. English where applicable. She explained the differences between dashes well and how writers can insert the correct ones because there is no actual keyboard key for the em dash; it needs to be downloaded as a symbol. Alternatively, a double -- can be entered. For a short book, all the essential ingredients were explained.
This is a really great book, and a fun read. It covers the Boring subject of punctuation in a fun, easy to understand manner. It is very instructional and not the least bit "stuffy." Unfortunately, it really should have some sort of way to look up subjects! A simple `Table of Contents' would honestly help make finding a specific subject much easier. As it is, you will have to read through the entire book and add your own bookmarks. The Kindle's search function works, but is little help on a specific subject.
