Short and practical, this book- the first of its kind for creative writers- shows authors the benefits that can be reaped from mastering punctuation: the art of style, sentence length, meaning, and economy of words. With full-length chapters devoted to each of the major punctuation marks, this is a great book for anyone looking to make punctuation their friend instead of their mysterious foe. Laura's guest is Noah Lukeman, best-selling author whose latest book is "A Dash of Style: The Art and Mastery of Punctuation".
