BAD GRAMMAR AND BRASS MONKEYS is a practical guide through the obstacle course of grammar, spelling, punctuation, proofreading and editing your work. It uses endless examples (including differences between British and American English) to illustrate explanations, instead of providing a tedious list of grammar rules to memorize and give you endless headaches. Are you sick and tired of spending hour after hour writing an essay, often finishing it at the last minute, only to have it returned with less than a stellar grade, all too often accompanied with unkind remarks? You do not have to take it anymore; help is right inside this book. The focus of this book is grammar, punctuation and academic writing skills, with unique methods of self-editing and proofreading your work devised by the author after years of writing, and editing the work of students and authors from around the world. Its goal is to improve your writing towards an academic level by reducing the types of mistakes frequently found in the work of students. Although this book will be especially helpful for UK University students at all levels, it is equally useful for lower-level students, as well as ESL students and users of American English. | Bad Grammar and Brass Monkeys by Richard Heagy, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
