Quick and Dirty Tips ™

Anyone who regularly writes would do well to make Grammar Girl a part of their media consumption.  Grammar Girl's podcasts offer quick writing tips focused on different aspects of grammar and how to apply them in your writing.  Her podcasts are focused on a new concept each time, and she presents them in a concise and entertaining manner that makes her podcast a great experience and a quick listen.  This podcast is very well done and is a good addition to any who already listen to other podcasts and a great starting point for people who have never tried them before.
Below is a link to a website offering minilessons on a variety of topics.  Under the Writing & Education tab you will find the link for Grammar Girl's website where you can listen to her blogs or read the transcripts provided.  I recommend subscribing to Grammar Girl's podcast and taking advantage of her excellent advice.

  1. Your title could be tips about anything, so many mention grammar in it. I've heard a lot about that podcast. A quick illustration of something you learned from it would have given this entry a bit more punch (as would a simple image showing the podcast). A very relevant post for our course.
