A Few Words From The Author

GRAMMAR GREMLINS is a brief review book for adults who have been out of school quite a while and just need to refresh their memories. GRAMMAR GREMLINS is composed of many of the most common mistakes made by writers and speakers around us. NOTE: INSTRUCTORS OF SPECIALIZED WRITING SUCH AS COMPANY LETTERS, BROCHURES,BOOKLETS, ADVERTISING, ETC. WILL FIND THIS REVIEW A GREAT INTRODUCTION TO A SEMINAR OR CLASS, AND THE LOW WHOLESALE COST WOULD MAKE IT A NICE ADDITION TO THE WRITING PACKET.

Some little devils keep sneaking into our writing and speaking, and what we intend to say comes out meaning something different. If you are a writer or speaker, perhaps you need a little creative reminder of how to say what you mean. This little review book consists of errors from newspapers, magazines, television, movies, and other forms of communication. Best of all, each example is corrected and explained in brief (even amusing) detail so that you can "clean up your language" efficiently and painlessly. If writing or speaking is part of your job, spend about thirty minutes with this little book and you're guaranteed a few chuckles as well as a creative reminder that language skills can improve with a jump start once in a while!
