Requests:  0 Summary:  As language evolves faster than ever before, what is the future of "correct" writing? Favilla was tasked with creating a style guide for BuzzFeed, and opted for spelling, grammar, and punctuation guidelines that would reflect not only the site's lighthearted tone, but also how readers actually use language IRL. Now she makes a case for breaking the rules laid out by Strunk and White: she offers a world with more room for writing that's clear, timely, pleasurable, and politically aware.--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 808.02 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 808.02 Favilla Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 808.02 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 808.02 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 808.02 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) Adult Nonfiction 808.02 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
