"Move over, grumpy schoolmarms everywhere. Your time has come. For the writer or wannabe, Sin and Syntax is an urgently needed, updated, and hip guide to modern language and writing. Nobody but Connie Hale could make the elements of 21st-century style so much fun."
–Jon Katz, media critic and author of Running to the Mountain and Virtuous Reality
"Sin and Syntax is one of the rare books that recognizes–and even celebrates–the fact that good writing has little to do with ‘rules’ and much to do with a true understanding of effective prose. Connie Hale provides us an invaluable service by showing us what works and what doesn’t in the real world, regardless of what the pedants say."
–Jesse Sheidlower, Senior Editor, Random House Dictionaries, and author of "Jesse’s Word of the Day" column
