Terry Erle Clayton's book is different, as evidenced by my new favorite phrase from his book, "pushing mud through a hose."
His latest book tackles the critical process of editing, the unsung hero of writing good text. My favorite takeaway is the tip on using technology to read text aloud as part of proofreading. Although the book is mostly about upping one’s editing game, he also bravely enters the Oxford Comma Wars. (No spoilers here!)
This is such a practical, accessible resource I bought the extra copy for a young writer in my family. I only wish this book had been around long ago – it would have made writing my dissertation process less painful.
