Essential for Every Writer: Credible, Easy Resource for Style, Preferred Spellings, and More

OMG, I love this site. Everyone should keep make it a favorite on their e-mail programs. http://creativeservices.iu.edu/resources/guide/spelling.shtml Trust me you'll refer to it thousands of times per year if you care at all about style choices, preferred spellings and the like. Couple it with The Frugal Editor and you've got your essential library handy. You can rely on it to give you the most traditional, credible choices possible to get your queries and manuscripts past the gatekeepers. Need I say more?
