Sin And Syntax: How To Craft Wickedly Effective Prose (1st Edition) by Constance Hale, Karen Elizabeth Gordon Paperback, 289 Pages, Published 1999 ISBN-10: 0-7679-0309-9 / 0767903099 ISBN-13: 978-0-7679-0309-7 / 9780767903097 You gotta love a grammar guide that calls verbs "moody little suckers" and adverbs "promiscuous." Constance Hale (Wired Style) relishes prose that is deliberate, beautiful, and bold. Go ahead and break the rules, she says; just know the rules first, and know why you are breaking them.
