<p>Second Edition - Mind Your P's and Q's (and Your A, B, C's) remains unique among writing handbooks- in its alphabetical format and because its author is a professional editor. Genie Dailey has been editing textbooks, novels, poetry, and nonfiction works for several decades, and, as she notes in her introduction, "certain kinds of problems crop up again and again . . . no matter what the writing genre or experience level of the author." From this perspective, Dailey has selected some of the most troublesome aspects of putting words on paper and offers sensible tips, concrete examples, and useful information delivered in reader friendly conversational style. From A to Z-"active voice" to "zip it up"-Mind Your P's and Q's covers some of the nitty-gritty basics (with a few surprises and a light but practical touch) while also offering encouragement and inspiration. Dailey's approach is both appealing and appropriate for virtually every writer, including high school, college, and adult creative writing students.</p>
