Write It Right: A Little Blacklist of Literary Faults

Step into the sharp and satirical mind of Ambrose Bierce with Write It Right: A Little Blacklist of Literary Faults — a witty, incisive guide to the art of clear and correct writing.

First published in 1909, this compact yet powerful manual exposes the most common blunders of language and style, offering Bierce’s signature blend of precision, humor, and biting critique. From misused words and illogical phrases to lazy constructions and pompous diction, Bierce spares no one in his mission to defend the integrity of English prose.

Narrated by Donavan Price, this audiobook captures the acerbic wit and intellectual rigor that made Bierce one of America’s great literary critics. Write It Right remains as relevant — and as entertaining — as ever, a must-listen for writers, editors, and lovers of language who believe that words, used well, truly matter.
