A book editor with decades of publishing experience shows writers how to avoid mistakes in this quick, whimsical guide.

This concise guidebook borrows the idea of the Seven Deadly Sins from the Middle Ages and applies it to the craft of writing—revealing seven "Deadly Don'ts" that the author, a veteran book editor, has encountered time and time again in writers' work.

In addition to showing you how to avoid those all-too-common mistakes, she provides a "Divine Do" for each, offering useful take-aways writers can use to communicate more clearly and effectively, whether they're working on a masterpiece-in-progress or just want to sharpen their everyday writing skills.
