Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing

Stop worshipping Strunk and White. Start writing well, with 50 tips and techniques from language expert Bryan A. Garner. For decades, people looking for a concise guide to English-language writing turned to The Elements of Style by William Strunk Jr. and E. B. White. That slim book has been used by everyone from high school and college students to professionals seeking quick advice on usage, grammar, and form. But The Elements of Style hasn't been updated in more than a quarter century, and it no longer reflects the way good writers work or what they most need to know, especially in the age of generative AI.How to Write Well: 50 Pointers on Process, Usage, and Style is the modern, evidence-based alternative. Leading language and writing expert Bryan A. Gamer distills a lifetime of teaching and research into 50 compact pointers for modern writers seeking to produce clear, accurate, and lively prose. You'll learn how strong writers think, how they turn ideas into blueprints, and how they draft, revise, and tighten with ruthless selectivity. You'll also encounter lucid guidance on grammar and punctuation that corrects Strunk &amp; White's famous blunders, including shaky treatment of passive voice and a fixation on trivia over substance. How to Write Well presents a start-to-finish method: mindset, habits, process, and the concrete techniques that produce clean, forceful writing. Unlike The Elements of Style, this book doesn't pretend your draft magically appears on the page. It shows you how to generate ideas, structure them, and build a repeatable process for everything you write--from emails and memos to articles, briefs, and books. And while emphasizing the mind and the voice of the writer, it also offers advice on working intelligently with AI while keeping full editorial control. If you're serious about writing, Garner's How to Write Well is the indispensable style book you need now.

50 Pointers on Process, Usage, and Style

How to Write Well

Skills for Scholars

A playful and irreverent argument for—and practical guide to—writing in a rich and extraordinary style When it comes to literary style, the commonplace wisdom of composition classrooms, newsrooms, and editorial offices has long been that less is more. Students are taught that the best prose is that which eschews ornamentation and rhetorical flourish. But what if sometimes more is more? In Praise of Purple Prose playfully and cheekily contests a century worth of convention that rejects the baroque and byzantine as “purple prose,” making the case that fun and joy in language can be as important as concision and comprehension. Part style guide and part manifesto, the book rewrites the rules on writing. Ed Simon encourages writers to embrace the extraordinary, to call upon the classical rhetorical devices, and to relish in the richness of description and the erudition of allusion. He demonstrates that serpentine syntax, eccentric diction, and idiosyncratic punctuation, when used judiciously, can express the complexity of experience, bring out the pleasures of language, and help readers develop a unique voice in a world where AI threatens to make everyone sound alike. To illustrate its arguments, the book features examples of extraordinary prose from dozens of writers, including John Donne, Virginia Woolf, Joan Didion, Salman Rushdie, Marilynne Robison, and Zadie Smith. Playful and provocative, In Praise of Purple Prose will leave readers with a new appreciation for fancy prose and inspire writers to draw on all of the liveliest and most powerful resources of English in their work.

The Mechanics of Composition

Bringing together essays from neurodivergent and disabled writers, and writers with chronic illnesses, this collection explores the impact of these experiences and the struggle against such biases within the field of creative writing. Whilst neuro-divergent and disabled writers publish world-class poetry, prose, and drama that moves readers and wins awards, they face many difficulties accessing these achievements - difficulties which often go unnoticed, unmentioned, and underappreciated. Visibility, insight, alternative approaches, and thorough research are all needed to create more inclusive writing environments. This book confronts these issues head on, calling for diversity in the creative writing field, community, and industry, and more equitable spaces in adjacent arenas from academia to publishing. Broken into four sections, this anthology focuses on creative writing programs, classrooms, the community, and its people, combining narrative, research and practical contributions to the field to offer a mix of practical strategies, personal and pedagogical interventions, critiques, and craft meditations that explore teaching, transformation, evolution, embodied craft, visibility, belonging, injustice, otherness, and views from the outside. With essays and excerpts written by authors and educators from across seven countries, who are each impacted by a wide range of disabilities, including ADHD, autism, blindness, dyslexia, dyspraxia, stroke aphasia, cerebral palsy, bipolar, fibromyalgia, and rheumatoid arthritis, this collection informs, deconstructs and re-imagines to reform and revolutionize normative structures within writing institutions and communities.

Designed for graduate classroom and professional development use, this guide encourages readers to think rhetorically about audience, genre, and beyond, and to apply these reflections in meaningful ways as they craft the documents they will need throughout their careers.The first part addresses key concepts in design convergence: design thinking, information architecture, and technology, and the second section provides application opportunities for readers. In establishing a foundational understanding of the key concepts used in design convergence, the guide brings together a range of disciplinary knowledge and experiences, including ways to work with generative artificial intelligence. Integrated into each chapter are exercises and scenarios based on real-world academic professionals' experiences that are designed to help readers deepen their understanding and consider possibilities and opportunities for (re)design in their field. Each chapter includes activities that position readers to work with their own information and content toward purposes that meet their personalized needs. These exercises include generating documents related to educating, leading, branding, and serving, such as classroom, research, and professional development materials.Providing an equitable foundation for document genre construction and demystifying audience expectations, this book appeals to graduate students, faculty and institutional leaders in Rhetoric, Composition and Writing Studies as well as the humanities, arts, and social sciences.

The Writing of English

The creator and CEO of ProWritingAid uses the latest science of peak performance and psychology to reveal how, in only four minutes a day, writers can become "creative athletes" and unlock their greatest asset: their mind.The Writer's Mind solves the biggest problem in writing: the unfinished manuscript.Most writers don't struggle because they lack talent, discipline, or ideas. They struggle because of what happens in their minds when they sit down to write. Even motivated, skilled writers find themselves blocked by self-doubt, perfectionism, procrastination, and emotional exhaustion. The creative brain must constantly switch between imagination and focus-often over long periods-and this unique mental demand makes writing feel harder than it needs to be.In The Writer's Mind, Chris Banks draws on neuroscience, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral science, and a decade of first-hand research with millions of writers to reveal a simple truth: mindset-not craft-is the primary factor that determines whether writers finish their work or quietly give up.Introducing writers to how their brains actually work, including the concept of the mind as an 'energy landscape' shaped by habits, beliefs, and emotional patterns, readers learn how common 'writing blocks' form, why their biggest strengths often hide their biggest limitations, and how small, intentional mental practices can rewire creativity, focus, and resilience. These tools help writers quiet their inner critic, escape overthinking, build sustainable focus, and develop a healthier relationship with their creative work.Blending science and storytelling, The Writer's Mind reframes writing from an uphill battle into a sustainable creative practice. It offers writers not inspiration alone, but a clear, compassionate operating manual for consolidation, consistency, and joy.
