Writing Advice on the Internet

Web resources you can rely on. I do.

• I bookmarked Dr. Grammar's FAQ because I still get confused by lie and lay.
• Amusing but accurate cartoon to guide you in Correct Use of Apostrophes.
• The Phrontistery ain't pretty, but it's the most complete phrontistery you'll ever encounter. The glossaries alone are worth the visit.
• The Slang Site: Where to go if you have no teenagers to translate for you—or if you need to translate your teenagers.

On The Bookshelf

I still love a good book!

• The Chicago Manual of Style, although focused on printed publications, is chock full of usefulness. And they're helpful online, too.
• I turn to Microsoft's Manual of Style for Technical Publications when it comes to technical writing.
• Marilyn Paul's It's Hard to Make a Difference When You Can't Find Your Car Keys is by far my favorite book on organization and productivity. Highest recommendation!

Staying Productive

Helpful resources for productivity—on and off the computer.

• Lifehacker not only keeps me up-to-date on technology, it helped me learn how to peel a hard-boiled egg.
  
• Zenhabits, Leo Babauta's blog, helps me smile, breathe and go slowly.
• Michael Hyatt's blog about intentional leadership offers outstanding advise and insight.
