I purchased Polishing the “Pugs” at the American Christian Fiction Writers
at the Dallas Conference. Kathy Ide is a professional freelance author, editor, and writers conference speaker. “Pugs” stands for punctuation, usage, grammar, and spelling.
She also covers Rules for Book Manuscripts based on The Chicago Manual of Style and Rules for Article Manuscripts based on The Associated Press Stylebook.
My copy is full of the sticky tabs to note the sections I think are important.
I keep the copy on my bookshelf next to the computer for quick reference. It is also handy to review why waiting for the printer to finish printing.
I convinced two of my writer friends and some bystanders to buy one at the second Dallas Convention. My friends were glad they did.
Kathy’s website is www.KathyIde.com and www.TheChristianPEN.com. Treat yourself to a copy. You’ll be glad you did.
Sounds like a book I need. Thanks for the introduction.
