He's collected the most common problems and mistakes in everyday writing, and discusses them in a fun but informative way to show you how to write a strong letter, article or email that will get you the results you need. Dave first saw the need for Verbal Vigilante years ago when he would witness college graduates everywhere, even TV and radio journalists, continually confusing everyday words. Also, after proofing an event program booklet, he had to call the advertising person and have him pull the program from the printer because several speakers’ names were misspelled. (Yes, they really did send it to the printer BEFORE giving it to Dave to proof !?!?!) The first draft of Verbal Vigilante was merely comprised of the now Chapter 6 (Confused Word Pairs). Quickly, it became clear to Dave that additional material would serve readers much better, and the rest of the book was born. With the additional writing tips and examples, Verbal Vigilante is the one missing resource needed to bring your writing to the next level. Become one of Dave's "verbal vigilantes" today!
